They Say, whoever "THEY" are say, keep out of the sun, direct sunlight etc,
well my iMac is on a desk right in front of a window, and it takes a lot of sun as i found out today when i was off work. im not too bothered about the case, but the screen. Can it be damaged? I know that it might heat up some cuz of the direct sunlight,, but can it be damaged, anyone know any "health" facts about sunlight and LCD monitors?

I'm pretty sure that direct sunlight has been shown to yellow the white casing of past iMacs. Not sure about the G5s though.
