Actually, they sell privacy screens for CRTs. Unless you are directly in front of the screen, you can't see anything but black. It looks sorta like a glare filter that goes over the screen. Look at the big comp parts suppliers online like tigerdirect, cdw, etc.

There used to be a company that would take out the polarizing layer on an LCD screen for you. The display would end up looking like white noise, except if you wore superspecial polarizing glasses, which would set the polarity right. Obviously this wouldn't work on a CRT, but the idea is worth pursuing. What about making your screen bright blue on slightly-darker blue, and wearing those funny yellow sunshades they advertize on late-night TV? Another alternative would be setting your screen font so that it's just funny squiggle lines of your own devising, and memorizing what each squiggle means. ~ESP -- Evan Prodromou [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
