» Server outage   2005-07-25 22:31 Web Guy

Most blackouts are mercifully brief, so this is actually the first time the UPS has not survived. The server is a fanless-CPU-low-power-high-efficiency machine (enough to make most greenies wet themselves with envy), and it's also jet-black. But I recently plugged the 3GHz pentium-4 greenhouse-emitting-nuclear-powerstation-required development machine into it, so I guess it's no surprise that it wouldn't survive an extended outage.

I may just get a surge protector for the P4, and keep the UPS for the server if the blackouts become common.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
