Computer injuries on the rise

Blurry vision and wrist pain are among the well-known health perils of computer use, but a study released Tuesday shows a rise in previously overlooked injuries due to computer equipment falling over.
 
Blurry vision and wrist pain? Doesn't that depend on how much porn you download?

But seriously, doesn't the rise in injuries simply correlate to the increased use of computing equipment, rather than the increased danger?
 
Well to be honest, my mouse gave me a nasty bite the other day...
 
Im sorry, but toppling computer screens? Honestly, how many people these days still have CRTs apart from schools and "old" offices. How retarded do you have to be sitting under a desk behind a CRT and tugging on its power cords.
 
Computer injuries? Seriously? Never knew there was such a thing!, other than dropping a hdd on your bare foot, getting shocked while replacing a dodgy psu or accidently putting your finger in a fan etc etc...
 
My hamstrings are getting quite short from the sitting all day long.

I had to make a renewed effort to stretch them to suppleness again since I've started to play in a touch rugby league.

Heart Attack?
