The LapDome: tent-shaped sunscreen for your laptop

Friends, are you sick and tired of the constant struggle to use your laptop while sunbathing? Do you find yourself battling the life-giving rays of our closest star, desperately trying to finish that presentation... pool side? Well toil in vain no more -- the LapDome is here. That's right, instead of going inside like a normal person, now you can cover up your laptop with the most ludicrous and embarrassing product since the Pocket Fisherman. You'll get the idea real quick -- it's a mini-tent used to shield your computer from the sun, and the glare which it causes. The company's ad campaign asks "Does this look familiar?" next to the depiction of a woman covering her laptop with a beach towel, then suggests covering your laptop with a small tent might look better. We suggest stopping the madness, ASAP.

Hey lady what happened to your tan? A big white square on your legs. You must have beeen using a geeky ass tent for your laptop.

Can I buy one...better make that three.

That bald, bikeresque guy looks like a hard ass. I really don't see him prancing around the poolside shouting "Wow! You can see the screen!"

I bet he's the inventor of this thing, and he's gonna ride on down here with the rest of his biker pals and kick our nerd asses for making fun of him!

Meh.. I prefer to do my tanning indoors anyways.

Usually males get their fill of embarrassing "tent-on-your-lap" moments in middle and high school. This device only serves to bring back those horrifying memories!

Would you feast your eyes on that... circa 2000 cell phone.

2008. Screens cannot be seen in ordinary sunlight properly.

There is room for lots of improvement here.
