I bought a RHOS compliant monitor, but it still contains mercury and lead. I then looked up RHOS in more detail and it says that mercury and lead are permitted, but restricted. However, the restrictions don't apply to some products were there is no substitute ie flouresent lights.

I'm sending the monitor back as I don't think it's going to be any different to the other LCD's out there.

I really don't know what to do now. I need a computer, but I also have it in my bedroom (only space in the house) and I just don't know what to do for the best.
