Don't use biro on a notebook when using paintbrush....
After showing somebody (name removed to protect the innocent) how to use paintbrush on a notebook, and then it not working when they tried it on their own, the person decided that if the mouse wouldn't work, they would use a biro to "paint" on the screen... result? one notebook screen covered in biro. Spent 30 minutes using a normal screen cleaner, and probably did more damage than good. Solution? Buy some isopropanol spray from your local retailer (in Germany, Conrad Electronics) and it removed all the biro within 20 seconds. Cost? €6.45
