Monitors (speakers) near monitors (video)
Did we used to have to buy (audio) monitors that were somehow "shielded" so the magnetic fields wouldn't distort the (video CRT) monitors near them?
Yes.
I remember when that was a issue.
I'd come home after a long day workin' at Marshall Fields, having walked 3 blocks in the blazing drizzle, with only a pair of Jimmy Choo's on my feet, and 3 martoonies and a pizza under my belt, and hafta turn on the hamster-powered generator (usually after having to lube the wheel) and pull-start the computer and light the candle to back-lit that infamous CRT what unshielded monitors would cause to melt down into Dell-tan colored slag.
Shielded monitors were even necessary if you had yer stereo close to yer TV tube; it fucked with my feng shui for years!
