Glossy LCD? No thanks

A Lenovo X300 from the Lenovo Outlet for about $1100 seems to be the best deal to me. For an extra $400 beyond the MSI you get a fast SSD, higher resolution non-glossy display (though the viewing angle and contrast is rather disappointing), a second processing core, a DVD+RW drive, and an overall sturdy design.

The MSI X340 does seem to have a nice balance. It's got a better video processor than the Lenovo (Intel 4500 vs 3100) plus an HDMI port. Battery life also sounds like it's much better than the Lenovo as well. But really, that glossy LCD screen makes it a no sale for me.
