....

hey guys...I need a surge protector for my PC. Today a lightning striked near my house and my computer shutted off. I was almsot crying. Though its working, nothing happened

So..what is a good BACKUP UPS or Surge Protector around 70$?

Thanks!

You cannot go wrong with any of the APC products. Usually, you can get a great deal on them at Staples. The UPS's work great and the more money you pay, the more battery time you get. The surge protection is great as well.

I see....

Anyone else on the matter? Maybe with a little coupon?

I was gonna suggest a Belkin surge protection socket (like I have), but dunno if you can get 'em in the US??

You fill out registration and send it in and it covers you for like $100,000 worth of equipment if it fails.
Same with any surge protector...make sure it offers "insurance" protection against failure

this is a pretty good price, and this looks excellent, lots of protection on it http://www.techdepot.com/pro/product...affid=10000484
