Both. Computers and its related components do not like EMFs. Anyone can build a Ferriday cage around their electronic "stuff", but without electricity to run it, there is not need for it. Heck, someone might have a whizz-band computer setup that has been shielded with redundant Ferriday cages, but what good is that when there is no electricity to run it? Maybe that tech head could have solar panel backup, but to what good? If on the other end of the internet cable there are dead data centers, then that highly protected computer won't be of use because there won't be any data coming in to it. We will be lucky to write letters on paper and hand deliver it to our neighbors because there won't be any gasoline to drive it to the next town. Gonna be some hard times ahead.
Solar panels could survive a micro nova if they were properly stored in a structure which could shield them from the electronic bombardment, say like in a cave. After the effects of the micro nova pass, pull the panels out and set them up. Voila', you have power for your computer. But you'd better shield the computer, also, lest it get fried.
