[Cialug]linux compatible hardware

[Tom Pohl]

I've always had good luck with APC stuff until it's 3-4 years old,  
and then it's a crapshoot as to battery or UPS problems.  I'm right  
at 50% of the time where replacing batteries (usually the 2nd time  
you change them out), the UPS will spontaneously reboot about a week  
or month later at semi-monthly intervals.
