If magnets and electromagnets were never invented, it is likely computers would not exist. The first computers required the magnetic properties of relays and/or vacuum tubes to function.

Even modern computers rely on magnetics to spin fans, spin hard drives, CD/DVD drives, produce sound, provide power through the power supply, increase voltage through induction, rectify power flow, and read/write data to hard drives, floppy drives, and other magnetic media.

Things that contain magnets?

Magnets are used to make electric motors and generators. Without these electric motors and generators we would not have telephones, lights, electric heat, television, or computers. Some items that use electromagnets are: Maglev trains, car crushers, scrap metal sorters, telephones, computers, doorbells, tape recorders etc. Magnets are also used in compasses to show attraction and repulsion. Magnetized compasses are used to detect underground metal pipes.
