My friend keeps going on about the dangers of leaving or using your computer for long periods of time and the electric radiation it emitts.

I am aware that computers and indeed all electric devices give of small amounts of radiation but is this really that much of a threat?

Does anyone have news articles or documentation about this and if it really is a danger.

I will keep using computers nomatter almost anyone something says but I might think twice about leaving any on that don't have to be.

Compared to drinking Coke, smoking cigarettes and lack of motion, the electromagnetic field surrounding CRTs and PSUs is like Vitamin C.
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.
