really think that having a magnet that close to a computerized machine is a good idea. Or maybe these days they are better protected. I'm usually behind the times anyway, so please correct me on this. |
Hope you don't mind - I think I may do this. Great idea!!!

really think that having a magnet that close to a computerized machine is a good idea. Or maybe these days they are better protected. I'm usually behind the times anyway, so please correct me on this. I was thinking the same thing. I was told that a magnet could damage the computer chip as much as in a computer. We were told in college to not get our Floppy disc (that tells how long ago they told me) near a magnet because it would erase the contents or make it not usable. I found out the hard way before they told me. Like Ramona said, maybe they are more protected now. I hope so. |
I checked into the magnet thing when deciding whether to get a Magna Hoop and was told as long as the magnet is not close to the computer portion, there would be no problem. I don't know if the small magnet you are using can pose much of a problem but it might where you have it located!

Thanks for the helpful hints.
