| 381730 | 2005-08-16 08:00:00 | Ok, it might sound like a silly question but I'm serious. Does anyone know how hard you can press on an LCD screen without breaking it? Does anyone have experience with this? TIA, Andrew |

| 381732 | 2005-08-16 08:56:00 | Try it some time - you can. Will the screen break before the brackets (or whatever they are called) that hold it in place break? A |

| 381734 | 2005-08-16 09:41:00 | Go to a comp shop and ask them to keep you an LCD screen that's been returned (too high dead pixel count or other reason) and checked out and they'll maybe give it to you. Save them paying to have it taken away in the rubbish. HTH..........m | mark c (247) | ||
| 381735 | 2005-08-16 21:01:00 | Thanks for the comment Mark. I will keep that in mind, although I suspect a computer shop would return any such monitors to their supplier. A |

| 381736 | 2005-08-16 21:23:00 | This is an interesting thread. What are you planning on doing with your monitor that you would press it hard enough to possibly break the brackets? | Greven (91) | ||

| 381738 | 2005-08-16 22:47:00 | This is an interesting thread. What are you planning on doing with your monitor that you would press it hard enough to possibly break the brackets? A fair question. I'm debating with my business partner as to how hard you can press on the screen when cleaning it (see : www.computercleaning.co.nz). To get an absolutely streak-free finish requires quite a bit of force without being rough (of course). We have tried alcohol, window cleaner, Foam Cleaner, citrus based cleaners and the one technique I have found that works 100% of the time, irrespective of the product used and brand of monitor (because different brands respond to different cleaning products), is using quite a lot of force on the screen, and doing it really quickly (when drying it). Try wet cleaning an LCD screen some time (without a lot of force) and if you view the screen on an angle with back light, you will see a lot of streaks. The way to avoid this is to press hard during the drying stage. Hence the seemingly silly, yet serious, question. Of course this wouldn't be a problem if our clients kept their fingers off their screens.... A |
