EVERY piece of equipment in a ham shack should its chassis bonded to 
every other chassis in the shack, and to your earth ground system. This 
includes the computer.  Doing so will minimize problems with hum, buzz, 
and RFI. It also tends to minimize lightning damage.

A tutorial on this is part of http://audiosystemsgroup.com/RFI-Ham.pdf
