Monitor Maintenance
What is the best way to clean my monitor (Samsung 204T)? I have a few random smudges on it. One is actually from some juice from my apple hitting the screen, and me being a genious and just wiping it with some toilet paper. That was like 6 months ago. Any chance this will come out?

Pretty much any office supply or big computer store is going to have monitor cleaner, some will have kits that are like little handi-wipe packets. Try them.

I just used lens-cleaning wipes (meant for glasses) on my LCD monitor and it worked great. Got all of the stains off, was streak free and dried quickly.
