I have UPSs on just about everything "electronic" here is the house. Other than loosing something I'm typing when the power goes off I don't have a problem with loosing power. The problem is that around here when we loose power we never know when it's coming back on. Too often when the power goes off it comes back on in half a second or a second later and the electronics goes crazy. I have a UPS on the entire entertainment center which has the R-15, TV, etc. and the computers are on a UPS. That way when the power goes off and comes right back on I don't get the power surges through the equipment. If it stays off I can then turn everything off and wait for the power to come back on a stabilize before I turn things back on again. Most TVs now have a computer running in them. I've got three APC brand UPSs and have been happy with them.
I understood your "raised hackles" comment in the manner you meant it.
