Can this have any negative effects on your health?

Situation:

My three PC's are placed quite close to my bed (nearest is 3 meters). It are all normal PC's, i.e. normally shielded, and in no way modified. Proper A/C is available.


My parents were worried that something from those PC's (e.g. radiation, heat) might in some way be bad for my health, seeing that I sleep in the same room. I told them that they do not have to worry about that, that the level of radiation (electromagnetic) is much weaker than that from my radio alarm.

They obviously didn't trust me 🙁 so I rely on you guys and gals: can this set up have any negative effects on my health (short- or longterm)?

Thanks 🙂
 
I had a psychology professor who told me that electromagnetic radiation comes from alll forms of electric devices... computers, lights, tv's, cell phones... and he said that this can have negative effects on your health.. (sounds like B.S. to me)
 
Hmm... then I should remove all powercables around and under my bed, in the walls and ceiling as well 😉

I personally wouldn't mind to get rid of that radio-alarm. I hate it to wake up before I want to 😀
 
Indirectly...


the wimmen will steer clear away of beds with computers next to them and you may wither up ..
 
Lets put it this way, ever notice that there are NEVER power lines near playgrounds? Because it was proven that high voltage power lines actualy caused cancer in children that used that playground, there was a big lawsuit blah blah blah. I know a computer doesnt put nearly as much radiation but it seems you would have at least 12hours a day or more exposure to 3 computers and monitors. That just can't be good for you. I have also read that radiation from electronic equipment can cause impidentcy (sp?) in adult men, that is definatly a BAD thing!!!!
 
The only way it can hurt you is if you have crappy programs like Snood or Gator on your computer. Otherwise, you should be fine 😉
 
You are in major danger! Quickly, send all your equipment to me, its for your own good! Trust me!
