RE: when a ups doesn't help

Walden is correct, the i5 rack ships with integral power strips, and the
power cords use a connector with an integrated shield that will not fit
any standard outlet.  These things are industrial strength, however, and
I have no hesitation about using them, especially compared to getting
our electrician to wire enough outlets to plug all of this stuff in.

"Power strip" is a relative term. Jim's original post mentioned that he
was using a "professional rack" so this isn't a typical power strip from
Staples. <G> IIRC, the back of the i5 racks have power strips
themselves, no?
