RE: UPS Attachment to an i5 520

Sounds good... i'd like to learn more about that API you found.  We're
mainly trusting the cable and just checking to be sure that our monitoring
program is present and running.

Once it's working (soon I hope) I plan on an additional failsafe.  In
addition to the UPS monitoring program (which monitors the UPS message
queue), I'm going to stick a job scheduler job in there that checks every
15
minutes via this API for UPS attachment.  If not, send a message.
