My husband place a computer under my desk (against a wall) about a year ago.

From the beginning I have been getting headaches and the heat generated from the machines has been quite something. My husband, a tech professional of sorts, tells me it's nothing but I know there is something; I feel fine when I'm away from the system for more than five minutes.

Anybody else have this problem?

Thanks.

Do you get this if you work near the computer (say, doing paperwork) but not looking at the screen? it could be the screen causing this.

The other thing it could be, is the noise, oddly enough, I've seen some people at work get bothered by the "office white noise", so to speak.
