How would you like to be working in front of what appears to be a blank
screen wearing Polarized sun-glasses?

In some new LCD screens, the manufacturers are leaving off the final
polarizing film.  If you want to see what is on the screen, then you'll
have to put on your polarizing glasses. Polarize your windows the
opposite way and no one from outside will ever be able to see your
screen.  

Of course, don't tilt your head too much or you'll be staring at a blank
screen too!
