When I look at my MacBook screen from a fairly extreme side angle, I can see this fogginess like it should be cleaned. After cleaning it, it's still there, so there's nothing on the screen. Now, it's hard to describe, but it only shows up on a dark colour (obviously black being the best). It looks like if you took a wrinkled piece of silk and layed it flat. You can see the wrinkles as waves so to speak with that fogginess. That's what it looks like on my screen. Everything works fine, but I am wondering if anyone else can notice this on their MacBook? If it's abnormal I would like to get my screen fixed/replaced under warranty.

Is there any way you could get a picture of it?

I tried taking a picture but it just wont show up. You can only see it in the right light. I wish I could take a pic...

Could someone maybe try and look at their screen with a dark/black background from the side and see if they can see something similar to what I am trying to describle?
