Any problems from speaker's magnetic field affecting my iBook?

My live rig comprises an AX-50, an Echo firewire audio interface and an iBook, going into a 300 watt powered speaker. Does anyone have any advice about keeping the Mac, etc. away from the speaker (because of the magnetic field), or putting the rig ON the speaker?

Many thanks

If you keep the Mac away from vibration... you will also be keeping it away form the speaker.

To be honest, I'm not really sure how much magnetic interference there would be, I'm guessing that the laptop would have to be in the range of 12 - 15 inches before problems arose. You really don't want a computer near or on top of a speaker.
