One reason I've not updated from 5.09 is fear of it going horribly wrong. Dire warnings about needing not to suffer a power cut are not helpful because I don't have a direct phoneline to the local power station and can't arrange for no interruptions to the supply. I'd be willing to sacrifice a virgin, if I could find one, if that would help. Though I might have a better use... So, I'm wondering if I should buy a simple UPS. Can anyone recommend one? What sort of VA rating? One I've seen was described as having - I think - something like a 300W 500VA rating - how come the W figure isn't the same as the VA one? How long does a reflash take - is it just a few seconds or minutes or hours or days? -- Jeremy C B Nicoll, Edinburgh, Scotland - my opinions are my own. --- To alter your preferences or leave the group, visit //www.freelists.org/list/iyonix-support Other info via //www.freelists.org/webpage/iyonix-support
