So today was the first day I took my work laptop outside and it is just a sad state of affairs.
Why do are all laptops (sans OLPC) so horrible in direct sunlight?
At this point in time, should we not have better screens?
I got around some of the problems by making my mouse pointer super annoying.
Mouse trails and giant cursors both helped a bunch, but after a while I had to cower in the shade.
There needs to be a simple filter/glasses combination that works around the problems.
