hey y'all.

just blew out my monitor on my machine. The speakers I had in the top somehow slipped out and fell right onto the back of my monitor (crashed and hit the neckbaord with me right behind it.)

I'm sure the monitor is toast, but it's making a hissing noise and I wanna know if it's leaking anything out into my apartment.


....guess i'm in the market for a new monitor.
 
Tube

The tube has less pressure than the atmosphere. You are hearing air go IN to the tube. No worries.

I don't think it is venting poisonous gas or anything bad into your apartment. I believe it is sucking in air and not blowing it out.

you should be able to replace the tube, if you can find a replacement. probably easier to replace the whole thing though.


<edit> aaron beat me to it, never type a post while watching the end of a tv show.
