Monitor cooling..

I have a 19" monitor, and it seems to emit an awful lot of heat.. Does anyone else have this problem? Would it be wise to install a fan onto the case? I assume that it'd probably be a good idea to do it, just in case, but shouldnt the company safeguard against that sort of thing? I guess that is what I get for getting a monitor from walmart (Kds is the brand)

Yes. Monitors can take it but it would be pretty cool and a precaution to have a fan installed there. Right now im using a Homelite mini-fan facing my monitor LOL

I don't think it's really necessary, but here's a Monitor Cooler.
