Ditto.  Four years ago I lost a laptop and most innards of three desktops, a few multi-line phones, etc., from a nearby lightning surge that came in via the phone line.  I didn't lose any ham radio gear only because the PC I use for logging and rig control had no direct or indirect connection to the telephone line.
