If you've seen the new MB in person, are the viewing angles on the new MacBook's display better, same or worse than the previous generation MacBooks?

Thanks

Very poor:

That looks like a MB to MB Pro comparison. I'm talking about a comparison of the new Macbook to the white plastic Macbook.

That looks exactly like my Rev. A white MacBook. I was hoping for something similar at least to the MacBook Air (notebookreview.com review has some pics in the "Screen" section) which seems to have a better horizontal viewing angle.

Another item knocked off of my "reasons to upgrade" list...

[Edit: changed my first sentence to defer implication that I've seen the new MacBook in-person...I'm basing my response on the Gizmodo review too]

Correct. Looking at the MacBook alone, the viewing angle is very poor.

i find it to be slightly better than my black macbook's.

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to decide between a refurbished black Macbook or a new aluminum unit.
