If the supply voltage was reduced to a CRT type monitor, the image size
would start to decrease, and the picture may have some blooming with the
increase of brightness. What is being described here, is the common effect
of a strong magnetic field to the mask and the deflection system of a CRT.

Does anyone know what would cause this to happen :
In my apt, I've got my monitor set up so that it's in my living room,
theres a 'window' to the kitchen where I have my Microwave. They are
around 5' apart. When I turn my microwave on I get a noticable shaking
on my screen. It only has happpened with my new monitor ( Dell - Sony
Trinitron 19" model M991). Do I have anything to worry about as far as
ruining the display ?

its most likely a voltage drop problem and i don't think its a good
idea to operate your monitor that way. many things in your monitor are
designed to operate at the correct voltage other wise, you may get
area's in the monitor that will actually run hotter than it should due
to improper voltages causing circuits to go off the lim..
i would sugguest getting a UPS for your computer and Monitor.
