Laptop with touch screen

alinepapille
I had to buy a new laptop in a hurry and went from a tiny notebook to a 15" laptop. My head hurts as soon as I start using it and I am wondering if this is just because it is a bigger screen or because the touch screen give off more RF than a regular screen? I could return this and get one without a touch screen (which I don't use anyway of course). So it would be really helpful to know if this is a cause of higher RF. I'm planning on getting an external keyboard too so I can be further away from it.... Thanks for any illumination/advice you can offer! Aline

aline, it matters not if you do not have wifi in your
house.  i have to actually turn the setting for wifi
on my computer to off or it is constantly searching
for a wireless network to connect to.  check to see
if the wifi on the computer is on or off.  
if it's on, turn it off and see if that makes a
difference.  newer machines assume you want wifi.
love, patricia

Hi Patricia, thanks for your email. The wi-fi setting is off. It&#39;s the screen that is bothering me and I have noticed some RF going on very close to the screen (my electrosmog detector registers it). Thing is I don&#39;t know if this is more with a touch screen than a regular screen. I did not notice any RF coming from my tiny notebook screen (or maybe it just wasn&#39;t strong enough to register on that detector).&nbsp; I guess I&#39;ll have to make a trip to town and test the other laptops at Office Max if I can&#39;t get an answer here....

RE: Laptop with touch screen

well, maybe the more slick the machine,
the more challenge for us who are sensitive.
?  like phones vs cordless phones.  
like meters vs 'smart' meters
if you can still take it back, i'd do it.  
i am appreciating my older technology.
love, patricia

active than a non touch screen, that said I am working off a dell inspiron
with  an led screen and it kills me ! how can I help you let me know ?
