Glare reducing laptop visor - does it work ?
Given that nice weather is imminient (80 degrees in ORD today-woohoo) I am thinking of taking my laptop outside however, as we know, the screen is impossible to decipher hence I came across the product below and was wondering if it would work/is any good ?

We have built these ourselves with cardboard... but they are not really perfect. Help yes, but not perfection. We used it on a fair where we had a presentation on computers outside.
When I use my Notebook outside I try to go under a tree, also reduces the chances of getting sunburn

Seriously, in regards to the visor, I don't think laptops were made to used outside. Too much trouble.

But what could be cooler than sipping a cold drink, catching some rays while watching a DVD on the laptop while kicking back in your sun lounger ?
Thats the main reason I bought it..
