Re: Show us your workstations
Every consultant I've spoken to over the last 3 or 4 years during my treatment has told me that it won't damage my eyes.

Heres my Comfy Workstation/Living Room. Note Beer, Armchair and General Mess. Ah, the joys of Batchelorhood.

Re: Show us your workstations
Well that's one way to screw up your eyes, I only had to start wearing glasses when I had been using a PC for a few years, coincidence? Perhaps but that's what I blame it on

Re: Show us your workstations
I'm guessing that a fair few of the thirty something forum members used to squint at fuzzy tv pictures sent through the RF modulators in Spectrums, C64s, Amigas and the like too. Now that couldn't have been any good for the eyes at all.

I think I did more damage to myself by squinting at the screen on my zx spectrum trying to work out what the fuzzy blotches were supposed to be on 'Mariah Whittaker's Strip Poker' than anything else

Re: show us what ya got
I have a lappy so very boring, but this is my server 
Originally a Dell Dimension but I took the side out and added the window myself, then went from there.
