Macbook Pro with glossy screen: Does Amazon have Macbook Pro with glossy screen?

Just recieved ours a week ago and it has a matte screen. I totally forgot that it never asked for my preference when I was ordering! So I think you are right, Amazon doesn't offer the glossy. I personally like the matte better, less annoying reflection, though I've heard the glossy screens have better color, personal preference.

Just a clarification, this is the first time that Apple (at least since its switch to intel in 2006), offers a Hi-Res option. So in turn Amazon has never offered Hi-Res because Apple never has either. But, if my memory serves me correctly, I did spot glossy (when antiglare screen were the default) MBPs on Amazon.

Screen is glossy. Does a great job with 3D. 120hz i believe. Have it paired with a Dell laptop- great way to go.

It's glossy. Just like the apple 27" cinema displays. I have 3 of them in my photography studio. They are awesome and a great value!

I think they do. The Apple Store listing of this product also lists the Macbook.

And to add insult to injury, Amazon just sent me an e-mail with the subject line: Accessorize Your Amazon.com Apple MacBook Pro MB604LL/A 17-Inch Laptop! This e-mail contains items that Amazon recommends that I purchase as add-ons to my laptop. How wonderful! Thanks Amazon! So, here are examples of extra money I can pay you for *now*, since the add-on items are all available, to go with my new laptop which you have no idea when I'll actually have in my hands? Terrific! You guys are the best!

yes it has a matte screen. One of the view ultrabooks that is matte and the reason I bought the zenbook.

PortableOne.com has customizable macbooks. Last I checked it was about $50 cheaper for a matte screen than the apple store.

The HP netbooks that have matte screens unfortunately have a wide glossy frame around the display, which defeats the purpose -- it's like a reflective mirror around the display and can be equally distracting. I have an Asus netbook with the same problem -- though the frame is not as shiny. The HP was so bad however, I had to return it. I'm glad to see many others share this concern, maybe the manufacturers will start listening??

Google i7 vs i5 for differences. Mac makes them with I7, Amazon just doesn't carry them

That one on the photo look like the New version to me. Probably a newest version will come out ? But, if you are interested in buy a Mac, it will be a good choice. If you have an Amazon store card buy it because you will get up to a year without in interest charge . That's how I bought mine. No problems so far . Good Luck !

I just received my MacBook today, and was disappointed to find that it had tiger installed, not leopard. I was under the impression that leopard would already be in it. looks like I would have to pay another $100-plus to purchase it. If you have any luck from Amazon, please let me know.

I just returned my HP Envy 27-inch monitor to Amazon. I too have a 2012 MacBook Pro (13") and attempted to hook it up to the monitor via HDMI (adapted from thunderbolt? - not the mini video port of old). The picture was horrible, fonts were unreadable. A 90-minute call to HP support revealed that they have no driver support for Mac and all the fiddling with the settings on the Mac did not solve the problem. Oddly, I have my MacBook Pro hooked up to an older HP 23" monitor via HDMI and it works like a charm. Not sure what the difference is between the two monitors, but there it is.

As far as I know Amazon has not carried the 17 inch Macbook Pro anti-glare display. However, you can purchase the Green Onions Anti-Glare Screen Protector for 17-Inch MacBook Pro (RT-SPMBP1702) from Amazon.
