Now, I know I could do a screen capture, but I was wondering if anyone

any ideas on how best to photograph a computer screen.

Saw a very nice pic on a newspaper today. Shallow depth of field - far
greater "feel" than could be generated with software from the contents
of a
screen capture.

Any ideas?

I should have elaborated. I'm using a Nikon d70 to photograph the flat,
LCD
screen of a Mac PowerBook G4.

LCDs are much easier to shoot since they don't flicker.
If you've got a D70, then surely you can shoot a series at different shutter
speeds and find out what the answer is here within about 30 seconds time...
