Power surge protection and the quality of electricity supplying a computer are probably the two most overlooked factors which can seriously impact the stability of your PC.

I think it does... In this review, PCstats is evaluating the Belkin Universal 1000VA UPS, which is capable of delivering up to 550W of power (which should give you about three minutes of power under full load). This 1000VA UPS features automatic voltage regulation (AVR) built in, and comes with a USB A-B cable, Serial cable, telephone cable and Belkin's Bulldog monitoring software.
