    Ok well I hate how all the new laptops have glossy screens it makes it very glary and annoying. So I was looking for some anti glare filters.

    I found some at View Guard however they don't have the size that I need so I was thinking of ordering a custom size. I have an HP dv7t with a 17.1" diagonal (16 1/8 width by 8.5 height)

    However if anyone knows of any other anti glare filters that are good please let me know or if you know of some place that sells them in the size that i need.

    Thanks in advance

    Just email View Guard, they might be able to do customs. Also, try 3M.
