Yup, using most inverters with computer equipment is not a good idea.
However, there are some that work.  The solid state inverters can't
produce a stable output, but most of the ones that are not solid state work 
okay.  (My dad holds the patent for one of these...  not making it, but others
do make similiar devices.)
