It doesn't do anything for the actual computer, it just works on the monitor screen. It's the electronic version of turning an Etch-a-Sketch upside down and shaking it. My guess is you have a pretty old monitor if it has the degauss button.

Can a magnet destroy a computer?
They can remove some of the information stored on the computer.Answer:Magnets were initially a concern as they could remove data from magnetic media (disks and tapes), but with the advent of other forms of storage (flash memory, CD, DVD), this is much less of a concern. They could still induce currents in wires and potentially impact the processes in the systems. A large enough magnet could damage files on the hard drive, as they do on older magnetic tape drives.You should not place magnets near old-style CRT monitors. The magnets used in computer speakers are not powerful enough to affect any displays.
