roger04 Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 Isn't it dangerous? I mean the radiation. Will it be harmful for ur body? Thanks
Ausmith1 Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 Well if you use an LCD display there is no beta radiation being given off.On modern CRTs the amount of beta and X radiation is extremely low, especially if your system is TCO95 compliant. Modern monitors are well shielded with lead, that's why they are so heavy.It's nothing to worry about, you probally have more of a chance of being hit by a meteor than getting cancer from sitting in front of a CRT tube all day.In fact the sitting in front of the PC all day bit is actually what is much more likely to kill you if get what I mean...
FthrJACK Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 They arent like those old green VDU's you got warned about...i spend all day infront of one as its my job. TFT though at work...
roger04 Posted March 18, 2004 Author Posted March 18, 2004 Thanks for all answers. I have Samsung 753dfx[CRT] and a screen filter. I'm safe right? Anyway, do the screen filter works to protect?
Aaron Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 I think the screen filter is for those who are prone to headaches from looking at the screen for a long period of time.
Gism0 Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 I havn't seen those screen filters in years! used to be used with really old monitors wiith bad refresh rates mostly.I spend far too much time infront of my pc, i should buy a TFT might help my eyes a bit

XtremeMaC Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 google:TFT - Thin Film Transistor. An LCD screen technology used in laptop's and some of the newer type monitors

hazard0usIntent Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 I sit in front of two IBM E74 17" CRTs (side by side) at work all day, and a Sony 17" CRT at home all night I'm not worried about it at all except for the "sitting all day" part of it.......
gamehead200 Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Listen, ever since I was 3 years old, I've been in front of a computer screen. I'm 14 now and I don't have glasses, don't have headaches, etc. I see no problem!
cazzman Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 welll.. ive been using comps forr... hmm... 3 years possibly.. 3 years? w00t.. is that all... and all i can recommend is that you dont use old bad monitors.. they ruin your eyes....but yeah, no headaches (anymore )
Doggie Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 i spend a lot of hours infront of a pc.. due to i study computers and i have a computing job.. also own a mobile fone.. but i dont get headaches, where glasses or anything.. and @ gamehead: dude, same here and im almost 19 so thats like 15-16 years of pcs.. hail amstrad
