I don't think this is necessarilly true. I remember reading one court case
where some idiot tried to sue Sharp because they got juiced trying to adjust
a monitor with an uninsulated screwdriver. As long as the monitor has the
appropriate warnings (and as long as the manufacturer has a decent legal
dept.) they should be covered. The analogy the Sharp defense used was "This
case gets thrown out of court if the plaintiff got burned on a hot stove..."
