I agree with Jeff, Best Power makes nice units, and last time I checked, they had some nice "always on" units that didn't have any switchover time at all. APC's low-end stuff has pretty much turned to junk over the last few years, IMHO. Slow switchover times, noisy power at cutover, etc. -- Nate Duehr <nate@natetech.com> GPG Key fingerprint = DCAF 2B9D CC9B 96FA 7A6D AAF4 2D61 77C5 7ECE C1D2 Public Key available upon request, or at wwwkeys.pgp.net and others.
