Is it dangerous to be on the computer during a storm?
Muffinmix:
If the power goes out it's fine, but if it flickers it can forget your computer up pretty badly. Unless it has an external battery or something I'd turn it off when there's thunder outside.

Our house has 5 surge protectors.
One for our basement HDTV + Appliances.
One for the den TV + Appliances
One for the computer + Appliances
One for my room (TV, PS2, PS3)
One for my sister's room (TV)
JD:
It's only dangerous if you don't have a landline.
BobAndRob:
Surge Protector + UPS = threadPurposeDefeat()
