Just to add to the UPS discussion.  I've come across the Belkin UPS's at Buy.com (search for Belkin UPS at buy.com's website).  I just paid $145 for a 1500va UPS.  This is the second one I've purchased and both have been for small business servers.  The first one I setup has been put to good use several times in the last year as the power where it is installed is down quite a bit.  From the reviews I've read about them, the length of time they will provide power at full load is exaggerated but for the price they can protect a good amount of equipment long enough to shut it down gracefully.  It even comes with a serial and usb cable to connect to your computer and a $30 mail-in rebate.

About 8 years ago I lost 1/2 hours worth of work on a PowerPoint right
before I had to leave for a presentation. I've never had a power  related
file problem again - because I went out and bought a UPS ;-)

=====Circuit breaker flipped. :( I have the text, so I'll just start
reformatting it. The file was saved, but it was open at the time.
