Not true at all. Degaussing merely removes magnetism. It has no other
effect.
Residual magnetism can distort pictures on CRT's .

Don't try Degauss without knowing how to use it and especially not often.
I am not an expert so I might be wrong about anything, but I am nearly
certain that Degauss is to relieve the static or something like that. For
my NEC at least, it warns not to use it frequently or something like that.

Read again what I said. In particular the part that says "For my NEC at
least, it warns not to use it frequently or something like that.". The
documentation of my (NEC) monitor definitely warns not to degauss without
adequate delay between deguassing.

And note that I said "without knowing how to use it". The monitor being
discussed might be able to deguassed continuously but I am just saying to
avoid using it unless you know it is not a problem for that monitor.

Extremely difficult to believe. Would you please quote exactly what the book
(your manual) states?
Never, ever heard of degaussing harming a monitor.

Dear Sam

Enlight of the post "unknown", I would just like to say that I appreciate
the information regarding "Degauss". Even if it does not relate to my type of
monitor, I think it is better to be sure that sorry. And I will continue to
steer clear of fiddling with it untill I have a manual to get the proper
instructions.
