Do you understand what you are saying?

A person, moving a magnet near a single wire - not even a coil - is going to induce utterly insignificant amounts of electricity.

You'd need lab equipment to even detect it. It will do absolutely nothing whatsoever to computer electronics.

What am I supposed to reply to?

Instead, why don't you take a multimeter and see if you can measure any voltage (never mind current) by moving a magnet, by hand, near a single non-coiled wire.

Well honestly, I wrote that because I wasn't sure what to reply. I'm taking in five comments about power supplies, tons of wrapped wire, and I get a reply about a single wire.

Anyways, I apologise for being snappy.
