The exact opposite is true, in fact.

If lighting has a path to get to your computer, (e.g. aerial telephone line, exposed power lines), the odds are good that it will happen again and again, until you do something to change it.

See this article for some more details.

Just don't get into adventure riding, it's an even bigger cash cow than PC's and it's also just as addictive!

To add to what NakedPeanut said, have a look at this motherboard - Asus P8P67 Pro (http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8P67_PRO/).

Rebeltech have them for very good prces at the moment. I have also lost hardware to lightning, so I know what it feels like. Strongs boet
