I was'nt sure if this should go in General Discussion or in here
My gf and I each have our own Dell PCs.
Her Dimension 1100, my Dimension 8400 and a Netgear router are plugged into a surge-protection tower thats connected to a single wall socket. So its:
Wall socket--->Surge tower---->2 X Computers, 1 X Router
Im clueless when its comes to electricals lol.
I just want to know...is it safe to have 2 PCs drawing power from the same wall socket, its not like "overloading" the circuit or something is it?
Because of the placement of the telephone outlets in our apartment we cannot utilize another socket.
Thanks
