Computer Hood concept

Oct 17, 06 01:03 AM PDT

Computer Hood concept
Despite how screen technology has progressed over the years, using gadgets under direct sunlight is no fun as colors look washed out and the words end up as illegible. The concept of a Computer Hood is more hilarious than serious, but one thing it does do is to enable you to continue typing that 20-page report in private, away from prying eyes and the harsh glare of sunlight when outdoors. Should the Computer Hood concept actually make it into production, will any of our readers pick this up? Perhaps they could develop a goldfish-bowl like hood for those who love talking loudly over their cellphones in public places like trains and buses. ( Add a comment)

what a great device for college students or even better, students who just graduated college and are working at their entry-level jobs and are really bored and have nothing to do but type stuff on this website and talk about turkey and fine wine? oh we just need to get together!

i take back my former question, "who doesn't like rhinestones" and replace it with:
"Who doesn't like crusties?"

You could use all that crustie to bread some chicken or perhaps some tender turkey legs?

I actually prefer bedazzling my "comp-hood" You can get cozy fleeze in a variety of bright colors, and brighten them even more with rhinestones. Who doesn't like rhinestones?

eewww, crusty rarebit. it might be hard to see if it's on your gobbler, but you'd definitely smell that funk.

yup, Lindsay actually has an autumn-themed one. It's tartan plaid and has a flap of fabric under the chin like a turkey gobbler.

and you could make seasonal ones too. try bunched pine needles for christmas, gold lamay for fourth of july, and glitter to stand out for your day to day

the hot glue gun is your friend

My coworker Lindsay made one from scratch and uses it daily. It's especially good in the winter when it's chilly.

Haha... that's the most ridiculous looking thing in the world. I would buy it just as a gag gift for some people I know. I hope they can design one that works with laptop screens. This would look and function great on a train or a bus.
