Can you clean it with windex or cleaner? That's how I cleaned my old (big) one......Just curious.... Hubby says you're not supposed to touch them..but someone has been w/ all these fingerprints all over it!
Thanks!

I found this:

LCD displays are some of the most expensive computer monitors on the market so if you’re fortunate enough own one you should do your best to keep the display in tip-top shape. Since the displays are more sensitive than their CRT counterparts extra care needs to be used to clean the screens. Instead of using paper towels or, an old rag you should invest a few extra bucks in a lint-free micro fiber cloth. These clothes are readily available at most car supply stores such as Pep Boys and are composed of tiny crevices that pick up the dirt and hold them in microscopic pockets. By storing the dirt and dust particles in these pockets, the towel keeps you from scratching the LCD’s sensitive screen with the dirt that you were trying to wipe off. To further enhance the look of your monitor use an Apple approved alcohol free cleaning formula developed by Klearscreen.

We have LCD monitors at work and "NO" your not suppose to touch them.
It can tear the screen behind if ya do....(seen it happen as an example at work)
At work we lightly dust with soft feather duster.
HTH :)

Ok I read it the rules and there is a typo in the rules it should be 'an ebay' not 'and ebay' Also ebay is spelled with a small 'e' not a capital 'E'

Promoting links to and EBay auction or other auction site (this is considered advertising), unless you are posting about your auction in the For Sale/Trade area of the BigBigSavings Forums.
