Fair enough, Factory400. I agree the cost difference doesn't seem that significant, at least when I bought my inverter it wasn't too much more expensive to get a pure-sine one and not have to worry about it.
By the way, if you distinguish between noise and interference you'll sound [to circuit designers, anyway] more like you know what you're talking about. Particularly to analog and RFIC designers, noise means thermal, shot, flicker, popcorn noise -- basically any random process which is based on physics / statistical mechanics. Interference means an outside or undesirable signal which in theory is deterministic but is out-of-your-control. So inverter "noise" is actually interference; and noise is sort of the layperson term in common usage. I've met people who screen EEs applying to jobs based on this differentiation.
