using Isopropyl Alcohol and a lint free cloth is what i have always used. I get little prep pads from the hospital where my wofe works and keep them and a lint free cloth in my laptop bag.

here is a link for you

I use one of those antistatic cloths (bought from ?) or the little bits of cloth they give you for cleaning your glasses.

I usually just clean my screens off with water. Cheap method.

Alcohol would probably work fine as long as you're careful.

I use the alcohol wipes myself. They don't seem to leave any residue.

Kensington sells some non-abrasive lint free cloths and spray to clean laptop screens. They work well as far as I can tell and will not scratch your screen.

Kensington Screen Guardian wipes work quite well for me. They're soft cloth with some denatured alcohol on them, wipes clean and doesn't streak.

*never ever* use windex on a laptops display, probably most CRTS either.

its got ammonia in it which will take off the protective layer, even on the first use.

theres a couple of windexes that dont contain it, windex vinegar and the orange cleaner, but all the rest do.
