If there in fact is a sonic difference here, then this noisy PSU idea
is most likely the culprit in my opinion.

Those older computers needed fairly meager PSU's (much less power
requirement), and so these mass-produced cheap and weak PSU's were very
noisy indeed.

More recent computers require more power and better PSU's, which tend
to be less noisy and less line-polluting as a result.

Still seems strange that the difference (if any) would be audible
though - seems a very unlikely outcome to me...
