Be warned folks. It happens in the blink of an eye. Backup anything you don't want to lose forever.
I have 4 UPS's, never leave home without one. Turned to laptops because if the "inbuild" ups factor (battery and ac) and portability. Now I have 3 laptops and 5 normal PCs, two run linux (SUSE 10.1) windoews 98SE and win2k an the reast different flavours of XP.
