And We All Shine On

John Siracusa absolutely nails it on the glossy-MacBook-screens issue:

Glossy displays have effectively taken over the entire laptop market. Why are they so popular? Here are three possible reasons.

  1. They are better than matte-finish displays.
  2. They are cheaper than matte-finish displays.
  3. People are idiots.

I won’t spoil it, but you can probably guess what his conclusion was.
