I lost an internal modem to lightning.

The next storm took out my cordless phone, air conditioner controller
and reticulation controller - The computer was unplugged. Of course it
was a Friday leading up to the hottest long weekend of the year...

Now when a storm comes I unplug everything that isn't essential
including LAN cables and antenna cables.
