5 (+3) Games That Will Run On Your Netbook
Without any information, you must assume that this is just another magic sham product to exploit the lucrative market of gullible germophobes.
Wavelength? Surface dose? Who's the manufacturer that makes these efficacy promises? (and who would be held responsible for damages from prolonged exposure?) I'm inclined to believe that if this really worked as advertised it would give you retina damage and eye cancer.
Locate something that has that feature and I will buy(if I can afford it). I want to see the buggers and know they are DEAD!
I know that the USPS is usig UV to kill germs in hopes of killing Anthrax since the 9-11 mail attack (which was not An Alqiaida action, but a US researcher trying to protect his funding from being cut... the timing just worked out "right")

It supports the concept and also reports that one can not let it shine on our skin to do damage, and why it only runs for 10 seconds.
It also reports that UV has been used for some time as a disinfectant... salons, tooth brush cleaners, and other devices.
