Well not on the ones I've seen. And these
were brand named computers like Hewlitt
Packard, Compaq, Packard Bell. There's
only one type of anti-magnetic shielding
I've seen (which is used on my surround
sound system). None of the computers I've
mentioned above used to have this,
although it's pretty hard to keep track of
every single system in existance, unless
things have changed, they are obviously
expecting people to update their monitors
pretty quickly.
