    No Problem :)

    Actually though I think a damp cloth might do the trick. I mean I haven't really tired hard on straight water. But I'm sure if its tap water when it dries it leaves the minerals on the screen which might not be good ^_^

    I just water and read the political forum here. Spew a nice mouthful of H2O on it a few times and it wipes clean easily.

    [OK, I use the eyeglass cloth and the stuff I clean my specs with... but the water story is more fun.]

    Lint free cotton cloth will work best or you can have this Rubbing Alcohol (70% or better), distilled water, a spray bottle and 100% cotton cloth, or lint-free microfiber cloth.

    My screen is yellowish in color. Is it because of the dust and dirt?

    I buy $7 (200ct.) individually packaged wipes which work GREAT. Forgot the name but they usually carry em at target.
