I just bought a used Sony PGM-2950 (29" CRT broadcast monitor). It seems to run just fine and the inside is virtually dust free.
When turned on however it smells like resin (a friend describes it as an acidic smeel or like dead batteries). The smell is quite stong and noticable already when entering the room. Even when off there's a faint smell. The smell is definitely coming from inside the monitor.
Is this normal? More importantly, could this be hazardous?
