Water around electronics is usually not such a good idea, you should probably try alcohol based cleaning solutions first, try to find specialized monitor cleaning towels.
ow...thanks i almost use h2o for display...fiuhh so ..i better use alcohol for this yeah? ...but im still afraid...mybe i just need to look around more.. 4 a better solution...like buying a specific cleaner 4 lcd display..
Something water-based or windex-like is NOT a good idea.
Yeah, I second that. I've used the iKlear stuff, as well as iClean (from Monster) for monitors/flat-panel displays, for a few years now, and been quite happy with the results.
There are undoubtedly cheaper ways of doing the same thing, but probably if price was your number 1 priority, you would've gotten a Dell or whatever, instead of the Apple Cinema display.

The iKlear travel packs leave smears on your monitor, I have not tried the other kind of iKlear.
I went to my local eyeglass store & got a pump-spray bottle of the Zeiss lens cleaner & a glasses cleaning cloth. For fingerprints, you can spray a little on the rag, then clean the display. For larger messes (those "OMG!! I toatally sprayed coffee on my monitor that was so teh funay!" moments) a spritz or two on the display itself is no big deal.

Dude! DO NOT apply glass cleaner on a TFT. A TFT has a thin plastic layer, no glass. NOT a good idea.

Actually, many glass lenses are coated with compounds designed to cut down on glare, filter out UV, etc. A good quality lens cleaner would probably be safe on a plastic screen as it is very gentle on these coatings.
