	Great, the list is back!

	Okay, well, very-soon, I'll need to plug in my watt-meter to
	see how much juice my server, firewall, and maybe one desktop
	take.  Guessing is less than 500w.  Is there a tutorial for
	newbie on how to use this beast?

	Optimally, I would like the UPS to run for a few minutes, then
	instruct that things be "shutdown -h 120" (say).  That is easy
	to write; difficult to program.

	thanks,

	gary
