I just learned the difference between a $10 surge protector and a $50+ one.
The $50+ one saved my computer even as I was working and almost 200v flew through
and the $10 one didn't help my BigScreen even though it was turned OFF!

RadioShack got a $75 one on sale now for $40.I just picked one up
just in case I get my BigScreen working again.

The power company already covered themselves claiming my house had a problem~
however the first power guy came out said it was a pole problem.
