Joe - Re: "That's strange. I thought it was one of the selling points of LCD monitors - less heat, less power consumption."

It is less power.

However, behind the LCD display is a row of illuminating bulbs - for BRIGHTNESS.

The heat from these bulbs would destroy the LCD materials over time if not properly "exhausted" via the fan.
