Oops, I meant APC. Anyway, go to their web site and they have a cool tool on
it.  Basicly you describe the equipment that you need backed up and it tells
you your wattage use and reccomends a backup product.  Of course, they can
go a bit overboard to push you into buying more than you need, but it is a
pretty useful tool.
