It's well worth it. My UPS has saved my system at least four times in the
past year.

I recommend Best Power's products (I use their "intelligent" Fortress model
on my single-user sytem), see a recent copy of the UPS HOWTO. They are a
little more expensive than, say, APC, but my impression is that the hardware
is superior; better yet, they openly support GNU/Linux, and include the
source to the accompanying software (which is easy to install). And a cable
is included.
