Re: laptop causes noise when plugged in to AC - anyone else?

This was up on the Ableton Live forum many years ago, since Ableton
used to run very well on Windows in the pre Mac/Intel days. I've never
had this problem myself, mostly having used Macs and probably had a
bunch of luck with the one PC laptop I've had for audio. As I remember
that thread most people seemed to load up there batteries before the
gig and not use the power adapter. Everyone that had the issue
reported that the problem disappeared on batteries. And this is the
first time in a long time I've even heard about this problem, I
actually thought it was history by now.
