	So why didn't you look at the other BEST product lines? The Ferups
are their top-of-the-line units. They make other less expensive units that
still surpass the power quality of the APC units (though they don't "look"
as fancy as the APC units) and have all the same on-board intelligence and
RS-232 port.
