Not I. The cost for tempered was over $100 compared to under $30 for regular glass. As long as you're not doing anything out of the ordinary with it, it should be fine.
monkey puzzle:
I used toughened bronze glass (cost £12.50 (about $20)) and am very pleased with the look of it. I just painted around the outside of the monitor (on the inside of the glass). I think this looks perfect and would definately do this for all my future projects.
Tip: When painting glass don't mask off with masking tape. Use fine-line tape (or electrical tape if you cant get any) and you will get a much better edge when the tape is removed.

so instead of apply tint on glass, isn't it better to tweak monitor setting to avoid bright? Also what about anti-reflective glass, isn't tint glass the same?

I like the look of the tinted glass when the machine is off.
