Hi Steve
I know you prefer matte screens because I've seen website photos that show your traveling kit - and yet, why haven't you stood up for Apple users who need matte screens - but which Apple has thumbed its nose at them for over 5 years. Sure, the 15" MBP has matte - but no matte for iMacs, no matte for external Cinema Displays, no matte for 13" MacBook Pro, no matte for MacBook Airs. It's like you prefer matte, but aren't willing to make a stand for all of us out here that need matte screens too.
People that need matte, e.g. people that suffer from eyestrain, people that use their iMacs in sunlit rooms, photographers who need to do color balancing, professional graphic artists, people like yourself who just like matte screens, people who travel and find themselves in varied lighting conditions where the glossy screen totally is a mirror.
Sure the MacBook Retina has slightly less reflectivity, but we do not want to see our reflections, period.
Would be interested in your comments why you've never stood up for this issue, particularly when you prefer matte screens.
regards
