msjacoby, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Though this IS a "hoax," all LCD displays are transparent. When you look at one, you are looking through to the backlight. If you removed the back panel, and every component from the backlight back, you could see right through with the image of your desktop ghosty on the screen. Hold a laptop like that up to a white surface, you might just be able to use it.
