Solar storm etc
Dear me:
"me" m@e wrote in message ... My magnetic compass is largely dominated by the earth's magnetic field and not the local power lines. Why should you be surprised that it is the same for a computer monitor? Very little of the thread remained. What effect was the poster looking to describe between magnetic fields and his monitor? Something about rotating it 90°... David A. Smith |

The key point in all this is that for most monitors, the Earth's magnetic field should have a minimal impact on the image quality. -- David W.
