[QUOTE="krs, post: 1911491, member: 67742"] I thought we had already established that a UPS is not required to provide uninterrupted power when using a MacBook, so the only other purpose I could think of to answer your question was extended run time during a long power outage. We just had a pretty vicious wind storm in southern Ontario and many places were without power for 3 an4 days. A MacBook would have run out of battery power by then, running the MacBook on a UPS would extend its runtime, assuming of course one also opted for the battery bak-up option for the modem/router if one needs to access the net during that time.
