-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Start Up problems

Arent they pretty expensive?  Just wondered, I bought one few years back and 
it even came with software with it, I never did get around to trying it and 
then my newer systems did not go with the software that came with that.  It 
was really heavy to pick up I remember that.
I would like if I should get one of these when I get my new computer.  Right 
now, just using a surge protector.  We do get many electrical storms here.
