i got a crt monitor, the point is i want to place my computer, that is unit
bit which contains the motherboard etc.....
next to my monitor. i have worked in the retail service industry repairing
televisions etc.. i know the voltages in the crt monitors are roughly the
same that go round inside the tv. is it safe to put the computer near the
monitor or should i keep it like it is, as i want to make space so my
scanner can go there?

Yes that's fine. Voltages have zero impact. However you
should not place unshielded speakers near a CRT monitor due
to magnetic interference.

Yes, the CRT may safely sit next to the computer chasis.
