The irritating part is that we'd actually bought the monitor to *help* a partially sighted (ie disabled) student.
I had a helper, and we are both big, strong men. We were still knackered, and wanted a drink when we finished. Which, of course meant going back down the the ground floor because we weren't allowed any drink making facilities (kettle, fridge, running water).

Electric heating using a monitor (CRT or otherwise) would only increase your bill, not reduce it.

Yeah I know it was a bit of satire to emphasise that they ran pretty damn hot :P
