I don't get it why do those little black bugs like my monitor so much.. I just went out and bought a 32 oz of windex and I've already used up like half of the stupid thing. And I mean you can't help But kill the little pests as they fly around making *ting* *ting* noises on the glass. I guess I need one of those bug zappers in my room. BTW my windows are open and no I'm not closing them its only cool in Florida for like 3-5 months so I will savor it with or without those stupid little bugs.

Doesn't Windex mess up the anti-glare coating on your monitor??

Then his monitor will start spewing full grown flies like that one boy's winky.

Yeah, Windex isn't a recommended cleaning agent for screens, especially for those with anti glare coatings... but once or twice won't do anything. My screen is still fine.

What's with bumping really old threads lately?
I think it's a test to determine who is actually paying attention.

Hmm, anyone know if the Dell 2000FP has an anti-glare coating? :confused:

A lot of them do. Its better to be safe then sorry. Water + soft cloth do a good job.
