It just seems to depend. We have a PC that we're using as a multi-media server located right next to the equipment rack. No problems whatsoever. Same when we line-in our laptops for MP3 playback. On the other hand, when our neighbor places his laptop near his amp, it buzzes like a fridge.
I think it has a lot to do with the case the machine's in. El Cheapo PC's and monitors use cheap cases with poor shielding. Better towers/CRT's SHOULD have better shielding.
Ultimately, Elizabeth is right. If you can't hear/see any interferance, you should be fine.
Pbowne, I'm wondering if you might have some household wiring issues. I've never heard of a PC creating THAT much interferance. It shouldn't, at any rate...
