Can a faraday cage/box be built around our computers to protect them from an EMP ?

Sure. You just need enough metal.

You can also wear a tin-foil hat to protect the old brain, should there be one that is worthy of protecting...

I would think you would have to shield ALL the wiring and sensors also. They would act like antennas and bring it right on in to the computer unit.
