Matte screen laptop?

Sep 9, 2012 5:02AM PDT

Are there any laptops out there with matte screens? I'm getting ready to replace mine and one thing I was hoping to get on my next one was a matte screen. The glare on mine is terrible and it hurts my eyes. Or, if not a matte screen, is there something I can buy and put over a glossy screen to cut down on the glare?
