I think it would be pretty unlikely that microwaves are actually leaking when it is cooking something and penetrating the wall, unless of course they are made of paper. I would go with the power theory. The surge power is different from the operating power. It is measured in watts. A 750w microwave surges to 1000w when first turned on. I am not really sure how this would effect you computer except to draw power away from it if it were on the same circuit. A big killer of computers is inadequate circulation of the heat from the little fan in the back being blocked. Who knows...
