Gman is correct about the voltages and the capacitors. Flat panels are not
as bad as picture tubes but still have certain hazards. If you are going to
open a picture tube monitor to clean out the dustbugs, make sure the vacuum
cleaner uses plactic tools and extensions. If you are using a spray can of
air, put the can in a rubber glove or sleeve of some sort and use the little
coffee stirrer nozzle attachment.
