RE: RE: Some fodder for marketing, perhaps

 I can't remember the model 170 but my home 50S still has internal
batteries.  It stays up through short power outages fine.  I only have to
reset the TCP networking because my router and switch go down.

Which reminds me... I was at my PC at home sometime last weekend when a
momentary power loss reset everything around me, including the PC. I waited
for it to reboot and wandered around checking clocks and other electronic
stuff. I wasn't concerned about my model 170 downstairs since I couldn't do
anything about it right then if something was really out of whack and I was
confident it would recover fine -- just as my PC was doing.

That evening, I signed on at the console to check it out -- but I found no
evidence of any interruption at all.

I suppose the power ~could~ have somehow dropped only in half the house, but
I've never seen that before and power is a fairly regular issue in my
somewhat rural location.

I'm not complaining. It just seems odd.
