That's a real plus. My biggest concern I think is the exposed surface.
It looked to me as though much of the clarity and contrast were being
gained by a very highly polished exterior surface almost as if the
polishing is somehow acting like a partially silvered mirror and
reflecting back into the screen, that would be quite simple so you're
right to put "technology" in quotes. I've seen my LCD screens
deteriorate over time using even the best cleaning cloths and
techniques. Have you noticed any degradation of the X-Brite aspect
over time. I know that's hard to do without putting a new one next to
it but a subjective answer would be fine. I ask because I've recently
compard two identical notebook screens with one being heavily used but
only a little over six months old and there was noticeable degradation
especially at lower brightness settings. The older had been cleaned
with only water and a correct cloth and then not very often. Thanks.

Haven't really noticed any degradation, I was just looking at the Sony
successor to ours, and it looks pretty much the same, without having them
next to each other. We've had it for a couple of years, or so.
