is the real answer to glare situations and not the kindergarten debate if glossy or non glossy screens.
it's OSX, what can you say... i am already looking so forward to tomorrow, when there will be at the user meeting shitloads of different audio interfaces... with a mac you just damn plug n' play / try them and the windows guys can have look at them
