Will putting my preamp close to the computer cause problems?

I have a Great River ME1nv and an Imac g5...new desk (creation station from GC) is on the way...is it okay to put the preamp on the shelf next to/under the Imac? It will be very close to the computer...

Thanks for the help...this may be a dumb question but I just want to be sure either way.

PS...I ordered a Speck eq today too! The one with the tranny...can't wait to check it out.

Should`t be a promblem, with quality proper screened products you mention.
Might be a problem near some screens.

Use the Stratocaster test. Put that guitar up to the gear in question. Hear a bunch of crap from the amp? Move it away.

but wait...I only play "nice" guitars! If I did the strat noise test I would be throwing everything out! (just joking around)

Thanks for the ideas...
