I will be getting a Mac Pro 3.33GHz soon, and need to find the right UPS System. I will be connecting the Mac Pro with an external HD.

I want to have a UPS system that will provide protection for the above devices, with enough protection to spare for several other devices (a second external HD, iBook G4, and an older computer, SE/30)

Also, I need a UPS system that will automatically save, then shut down, for times I'm not at the computer during a power outage.

Any suggestions? I'd like to keep the price around $200-300 if possible.

Have a look on apc.com ... I believe they have the Powerchute software that can monitor their UPS's and shutdown your PC in an orderly fashion.

Looks like they only sell the batteries for the UPS systems. I called, but they are closed on the weekends.

They do sell complete power solutions, not just batteries.

I did a Google search and found the main website. Submitted a question, so hopefully will get an answer.
