We are looking to step up to the 21st century and put computers at each
operators work station. With the amount of paper that we use that should
save a tree or two along with all the other obvious benefits.

The question I've been asked is what about ESD? I've taken a static meter
and went all around a monitor and got some interesting results. The screen
and plastic around the screen showed only a couple of hundred volts. Just
around to the sides of the screen it jumped to a few thousand volts. Further
back on the sides it dropped back to a couple of hundred.

My question to you all is, what do you do with monitors at work stations
where you are handling static sensitive components?

Thanks,

KennyB
