How far do you sit from your monitor?

Right now I'm about two feet from my monitor; I used to be a foot away all the time, but recently my eyes started to hurt. I have no glasses and I don't plan on getting them.

About arm's length, unless I'm sniping across the map and have to lean in to really see if my crosshair is over the guy's head or not.

Arms length.. well, to my wrist anyway. About 2 feet.

Edit: LOL, I posted before reading the thread.. I guess 2 feet is pretty common? ;)

Goodness, what kind of monitor are you using?

I'm on a 17" Flatscreen @ 1024


17" CRT @1024x768

edit:

actually I just measured and right now I'm 40" away.

Probably 2-3 feet or so, I also have a 21" monitor that is set at 1600x1200, so don't want to sit much closer, unless I was blind.
