Difference in LCD and CRT Monitor Display
why not monitor and why switch to LCD
As being computer expert, my recent studies in school have resulted in me using the computer almost all the time. I'm starting to get concerned about the effect my monitor has on my vision. What is the effect CRTs have at different distances? Should I just go ahead and get a LCD? Do LCDs have any effect on vision? Also, this may sound stupid, but one time I put on sunglasses and it seemed like it might have helped a little while using the CRT. Does anybody know if that could make a difference?

"I was wondering, what are the effects of working on a CRT are on your health - long term. It has recently bothered me that EVERYONE seems to be switching to LCD's - I noticed that Bill Gates was one of the 1st people to do this, even when the cost was super high, and many, many government offices switched to the much more expensive LCD's - despite budget cuts and having to go with the lowest bidder strategy they operate under. Was this ONLY for style and space savings? Is there some health consequence that no one talks about publically. I know that they do emit very low amounts of X-Rays and have a 60Hz magnetic field as well as a 12.5 kHz electro magnetic field (for the raster scan). I work in front of typically 3, 19" CRT's for 12 - 16 hours per day at an average distance of 18". Can these magnetic fields cause Leukemia, or anything else? Is being behind the a cathode ray tube that bad for you?"
