I was told by my sewing machine dealer to never put anything magnetic on a computerized machine .

The magnetic seam guide isn't strong enough to get passed the magnetic shield on any computer machines except the very old ones which may not have been shielded. Bernina, Janome, and Brother techs all told me the same. No problem with magnetic seam guides or magnetic pin holders around the machine.
