iKlear Polish Kit: How About A Cheaper Alternative?

Posted in: Chores, Gadgets

iklear.jpgIt’s the only Apple-recommended LCD screen cleaner, but at around $30 a pop for the kits, I’m skeptical. Of course, I was skeptical about getting anything Apple-related at first anyway; sure, it’s a nifty machine and all that, but damn, why does everything Apple have to be so expensive when the competition (uh, PCs, that is) offers the same horsepower for drastically less?

Okay, with the computer itself, those arguments are moot—I’m not opening that Pandora’s box of debate here, and yeah, I buckled down and bought a MacBook recently. It’s great, but the screen’s already got oily thumbprints on it (honestly, I’ve tried not to touch it, but shit happens), and it’s time to get something to clean it with. But I do balk at the pricetag of the stuff that Apple says is the only junk to do the job right and proper.

Does anyone have any cheaper, just-as-good alternatives they can back?
