Morning Kevin,
>>alarm bell. Could be coincidence, but ever since spending much more time
than previously next to my PII machine, have been experiencing increasing
neuralgic headache and vague, shifting aches and pains.
Being a computer addict since day 1, I have always been interested in
the ill effects of computer use.
When I got my first computer Jan, 1988, I spent 70 hours per week trying
to master the beast. Much later it came down to 60, then 50, and seldom
under 40 hours.
The case and power supply on my desk has an hour meter. I installed
the hour meter and a digital temperature meter before this case was ever
put on my desk.
At the moment, the hour meter reads....... 57,775.9 hours. The
original power supply is still working. over the years, I must have
installed 6 or 8 different motherboards and dozens of hard drives.
I have 4 computers networked that no one uses except me. Two of them
have TV tuner boards. One is used only for CD writing and my digital
microscope. The other runs a control system and data acquisition system
that feeds my plants, controls my heat, and logs deer movement in my back
field.
Not only all the above, but I build and service computers. To my
knowledge, I have never had any pain or ailment that I could contribute to
computer use.
Often I wonder how this is possible? First, I never read all the crap
that comes on the screen. When working with my programming tools, I can
often hit 3 to 5 combination keystrokes so fast that the screen only blinks
a few times. Having proper glasses and keeping the distance from the
monitor helps also.
Different monitors have better shielding that others. I use and sell
only iiYama monitors. These were originally called IDEK. I use .25 dpi
and keep the screen resolution set to 1152 X 864 . Anything higher makes
some websites impossible to read. This resolution works best for the TV
software. I use S-Video input and get excellent
color and resolution. I have a descrambler and S-Video switching unit
sitting on top of the full tower case on my desk.
Possibly all the vitamins, minerals, CS, oxygen therapy and sunlight
therapy assist my body in tolerating the abnormal and evil bombardment that
I subject it too over the years.
Heaven only knows, I may die tomorrow from toxic radiation.
The number of hours in a year ........ 8,736 I must have 50 to 75000
hours in front of a computer.
Any ideas anyone?
Wayne
