I've worked on a lot of iMacs for a lot of smokers but this is a first. Could you give the last three figures of your serial number so we know which machine you have. Please give a better description of this problem. There's really no tube.

I've seen more of this in the last few years, and what looks like smoke is actually dust that has collected on the inside of the glass covering the display. Use a suction cup and remove the glass and clean the inside.

@mayer degrading CCFL's can also make the screen appear yellowish and so can the diffuser.

@oldturkey03 The smokey looking stuff is usually seen when the computer is off and is usually in the upper right and left corners.
