It is loaded with ads, spam, popups etc, just take the usual precautions...
We have a "popper -stopper" here, so most of that crapppola doesn't get through.
One of the guys at NNETG sent it to me...
Now I have a potential use for those two dead DVD R/Ws that I have in the lab junk box :o
FWIW, if one were to disembowel a green laser pointer, there is a half watt (or greater power) IR laser diode lurking inside. The IR light gets "upconverted" to green, by passing through two crystals, which halve the IR wavelength from 1050 nM to 525 nM, and use up about 99% of the IR light energy, in the process.
Cheaply or improperly made green laser pointers can have a LOT of invisible IR power emission, so be careful...
