The glare I'm getting off the screen of my 20" tv/monitor is really annoying. I looked around trying to find an anti-glare screen to solve this problem, but the largest I've been able to find is for 15" monitors. Does anybody out there know of a place I can get one big enough for a 20" screen from? Or does anyone have any other suggestions (ie - some sort of "home-made" anti-glare screen?). ANY help/suggestions at all would be GREATLY appreciated. Ray Wilmott wilmott@topaz.rutgers.edu -------------------------

A quick solution is to build a frame to go around the face of your monitor. Buy a pair of black panty hose. Cut out a piece large enough to cover the frame and voila, you have an excellent anti glare screen for under $5.00 (how much do panty hose cost, anyway ?) ---------------------- Ben Liberman ihnp4!chinet!magik or ihnp4!homebru!magik -- ---------------------- Ben Liberman ihnp4!chinet!magik or ihnp4!homebru!magik

Makes a great conversation piece.

>The glare I'm getting off the screen of my 20" tv/monitor is really >annoying. I looked around trying to find an anti-glare screen to If you don't mind a more-or-less permanent solution, there's a spray called "Glare-Off" which can be sprayed on the screen. I got some a few years back and have used it occasionally. It covers the screen with a coating which cuts out the glare. Comes with some remover (acetone?) which will take it off, but that's really only for wiping up the mistakes, not for removing the entire thing from the screen. Worked OK on a VT-100.

Just don't forget to take them off before you run out to the store for a six-pack! Dave Wallis ihnp4!ihlpm!snafu AT&T Network Systems, Inc. (312) 510-6238
