Oh, I hadn't thought of that problem. (Embarassing, as I'm from Tampa and have had an unplugged computer killed by lightning.) I very much suspect that it is possible if plugged in and running; many voltage regulators are as cheap as they can be. I doubt it if not plugged in; passing by a refrigerator when it cycles likely would kill 'em if that sensitive.
Unless you're being treated for burns from the strike. That would be a tad closer than I am considering.
