Why is Apple insisting on Glossy Displays?

no matter how much you (apple) show/tell us what cool things the new thunderbolt display has to offer i wont buy it. i wouldn't take it if it's free... well, i would and then re-sell it. glossy displays are crap and annoying in day to day work. if you going to offer a non glossy thunderbolt display i might get one or even two.

LOL! I've just turned up to a job and every computer is an iMac with an extra glossy 27" screen.
The AMD graphics card is incompatible with Adobe GPU (slow as ***) and most of what we can see on the screen is ourselves, the roof and the office behind us! Unfortunately this weeks job is a composite and GRADE … (FFS!).


Massive fail on this company's part but it's the 3rd company i've worked for this year who've made this mistake.
Get a mac Mini, Powermac or a high spec PC and shove a couple of Dell's on it or JVC HD monitor.


They both make a lovely Matte screen… not very big though 😟
