[dba-Tech] Corrupted Word file

I like the Belkin UPSs too. Also the CyberPower brand.

I have an APC RS 1500 with an extra battery pack which runs my office.
Everything is plugged into it. Sometimes that means 6 PCs, a server and a
whole slew of peripherals. Kind of pushing it at that point but that's why I
paid the big money ;o) The normal 2 machines will run quite awhile it the
power goes out and if that's too long it shuts them down very gracefully
before cutting them off. 

...and, so that we don't scare Susan off, you can get a less expensive UPS
from Staples for under $50 that will work fine for a PC. And if she would
get herself a laptop it wouldn't matter at all ;o)

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.
