This was the main reason I went to using only laptops at home from 
about 1994 onwards.  Without any keyboard and mice cables, they also 
aren't as susceptible to RFI.

When stand-alone flat panels became more widespread 4 or 5 years ago, I 
finally transitioned back to using some desktop machines at the QTH.

Pssst: if you are getting noise from your wired CAT-5 Ethernet cables, 
just go to 802.11b wireless networks... worked for me.
