    All our bulbs are energy saving . Ikea do them very cheaply (I did buy a pouindland version but the bulb came away from the end and we had a terrible job getting it out of the socket).
    Switch off the PC when not in use.

    on telly the other day, cut a potato in half and jam onto broken bulb, then should be able to unscrew/push round to get out
