If you want to be able to have the computer automatically shut down when the power goes out, I would say go with APC's... Other then that I don't even connect my UPS's to my computers anymore...

Thank you, then will stick with APC's software, and that is all set i think...just trying to keep extra startup items also to a minimum as well
