[Dx4win] Crash

Fri, 4 Jan 2002 17:54:34 -0000

To all,
APC is indeed a very good choice Bob, also look for
those from Bestpower on Ebay
These are normally INLINE UPS and giving you more protection
for overvoltage also.
OFFLINE UPS are much cheaper and still need some
time (ms) to get activated so still risking the crash .
