Plasma monitors

I recently spoke w/a CAD teacher at local college. She said that at
her job she has plasma monitors which are softer & easier on eyes.

I wonder if those emit much less EMFs & if so, why I only see those
huge plasma TVs on the market but no 15" plasma computer monitors.

(rhetorical)

I remember walking through an audio/video store a few years ago,
and the big plasma monitors were horrible -- my skin was getting
all prickly within a minute or two, and from a fair distance too.
These seem to be worse (for me) than CRTs or LCDs...

Why would this be do you think? Any idea how they work?

Well, I didn't before you asked. But there are of course
websites which explain how they work:

http://www1.us.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/lcd_tv?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&~section=002a

So there is electricity involved (of course).

Of course, if I'll react to my badge at work, I have the
potential to react to *anything*... :-)

Hmm...interesting thanks. Seems like it works a bit like TV with separate points of light, but this would prob only affect the eyes. Perhaps the plasma creates an augmented files of EMR...?

Just speculating. The scientists and engineers would have a better idea.

Thanks Marc! Just comes to show how the world is full of hype.

Which has yet to be ironed out.

Note that when I was reading the recommendations on the
Stetzer filters, they recommended adding 3 filters for
every plasma monitor, which is more than they recommend
for a CRT monitor. Also, I know that plasma monitors
consume more power than a CRT, so this all adds up
to being potentially worse for someone with ES.
