I have this nosy office mate who is always looking at my computer screen and passing comments as he walks by me out the door. Fed up with office snoops who have no clue about anything.

       Maybe you should have your office mate wear this cone!

       3M used to make polarized lenses to place over CRT displays to absorb UV light and sun glare...a side effect was a dramatically reduced viewing angle.   

       If you're insitant on the cone idea, I'm pretty sure I've seen similar devices over television studio monitor screens.

       Haven't we done something here before where viewed head on, you see the nominal display, and viewed off angle you see a spreadsheet or something?   

       And other:general is not an appropriate category.

       Other than the category, this seems like a good idea to me.

       I keep forgetting about the category selection :-)   

       Yes, if the screen had some kind of depth perception distortion from side view, that would be good.

       it's baked to a crisp regardless of which category
