LCD question

[ascarytiger]

Should you turn your LCD off when you're not in the room or not using it. I usually leave my computer on all day, but is it bad for the LCD to be left on all the time?

I would just set windows to turn it off after 10 minutes of not using it or somthing. The image can be temporarily burned to the screen if you leave it on to long.

I wasn't aware that burn-in was a problem with LCDs, too, but either way, turning the LCD off when you're not using it is a good way to save (extend) the life of the backlight therein.
