    Default DV 2000t:What's with display anyway?

    I'm trying to configure the HP Dv2000t:

    WXGA Widescreen (1280x800) VS WXGA Brightview Widescreen (1280x800)
    Any noticeable difference?

    The WXGA is just the screen with matte finish whereas the Brightview offers a glossy finish to the screen surface.

    Thanks
    I assume the glossy finish is better than the matte one?
    What are those things you benefit from one that u dont get from the other?

    The glossy(brightview) screens tend to offer better brightness and colors but the only drawback is due to the glossy nature of the screen, they tend to reflect light very often. The matte on the other hand is just plan old LCD and wont be as vivid as brightview but do not suffer from the glare issues.

    I would suggest looking at the screens personally(if possible) since some people do not like the brightiew screens due to the glare issues.

    I admire you miner, you are so patient. Answering to the same questions all the time is pointless. This forum is very weird, PEOPLE DON'T USE SEARCH BUTTON.

    Searching the forum is a good first step but many people dont do it. I think it is better to answer the question rather than getting angry at people. I have also advocated new members to search before posting, but sometimes it is just better to answer the question. I understand your frustration but thats how the way it is.

    In any case, there is actually a good thing if there are multiple threads. If and when people do search there are more opinions/voices are available.

    We are deviating a bit off topic here & since tonmax got the answer, the thread is Closed.
