Laptop LCD shade

I think it is too expensive at 25 pounds - I remember Lenovo had made something like ths for the olympics or something - there was a post on Lenovoblogs too. This might be a decent DIY project, in addition to my Lapdawg DIY for summer :D

ps: Found the link ... Lenovo's solution while marginally better , will lead to lots of strain for sure.

The Compushade plastic shades can be found on eBay for under $10.

More popular are the fabric ones, though:

That fabric one is the best looking of the bunch.

IMO, the Lenovo one is the worst.
