  4. All of them, if you put a magnet near any part of your computer, especially the CPU it would be tragic. You have to keep magnets away from the computer at all times, and mounting a magnet to a computer would be catastrophic. You are gonna have to mount it at least a couple feet from any part of the computer!
  5. all especially hard drive and floppy drive, you should keep your cell phone away too, it produces a strong electromagnetic field.
  6. The whole computer..........
