I just got my 600M and was wondering how I would clean the screen on the display monitor.

I would not us like "Windex" or something like that would I? Maybe just a water dampened cloth?

It does not need cleaning now I'm just wondering for future refference.

Thanks

Windex contains ammonia which will ruin it...

Two rags - tshirts or diapers.  Wet one, ring it out, wipe screen back and forth, up and down.  Buff dry with 2nd rag, then do it again and again until it's perfect.  Then do keys EXCEPT for pointer stick.

Jloot, I use 4x4 gauze pads.  They are non-abrasive and also non-fibrous.  I use room temp filtered or distilled water then dry with more gauze.  Works great.

I use non-ammonia sunglasses cleaner and a microfiber cloth.

What NOT to buy = Staples screen cleaning fluid. It says it works for "most notebook screens", but it streaked up mine something awful. Managed to get it mostly streak-free with plain water.
