Gotta give this a bumb, especially with so models under $50. If you don't get
a lot of power outages you don't need a fancy one, but with all the random
other power anomolies that can wreak havoc with a switched-mode power supply
in a computer, it makes sense to have even a small one that will ride you
through a few seconds of poorly delivered power.
