I have a torroid filter on the end of my laptop's power supply cord right by where it enters the laptop. I know that this is for filtering RF, but is it there to keep supply noise out of the laptop or laptop noise out of the supply (and general vicinity)?
I am guessing it is to keep noise out of the laptop, hence it's position right by the laptop, but maybe there is more to it than my limited sense of logic dictates.
What say you?
