f you need to select or reject a Dell laptop based upon it's reflection 
level, the differentiating factor is that the TruLife screen is the 
shiny/reflective one and the non-TruLife is a matte finish.  I have a 
matte finish and my wife has a TruLife, the best screen will depend upon 
the environment you work in.
