Pros, specially designers who want to buy a matte screen for thier 17-inch MacBook Pro can buy one at Apple for $50 but there are also aftermarket products that can give you the same results.
One option is from TechRestore that will replce the whole screen and LCD of your MacBook overnight for $199 with a one year warranty.
We remove the glass screen cover…then replace the glossy screen with a matte-finish screen that has the exact same specifications as the original; same resolution, same color depth, same LED backlight…you get the idea. We install a custom black bezel around the edge of the screen that matches the finish of the MacBook Pro and looks great. The bezel has all the required holes in it for the iSight and other items that sit at the top of the MacBook Pro screen housing.
Only problem with this option is that it is permanent, you can’t go back to your MacBooks original Glossy state.
Another option is getting an anti-glare cover, like the iVisor from Moshi, which is a lot cheaper, who’ll be offering it for the MacBook and Pro.
I’ve know some people who doesn’t like the Superglossy screen of the new MacBooks and this options can help them take care of the problem. It is up to the user which one will they choose.
