Desktops have an internal PSU which supplies multiple different voltages. A transformer is a pair (or more) of coils which 'transform' one AC voltage to another and is used in the PSU as one of the components, however laptop psu's are electronic and don't necesarily contain tranformers 2) mostly it won't, but information on floppy drives and hard drives is stored magnetically so getting them too close to a magnetic field has the potential of corrupting the data, or if the magnet is strong enough permantley damaging the disk |
