Feel icky

Thanks for the info Brenda. It probably is a good thing to
have hooked up, I never did it. I do leave my computer on
when I'm not home, but close all applications. Guess Windows
could crash, but heck, it does anyway. <G>

Joyce the software that your APC came with is probably
software that will shut your computer off for you
automatically if you aren't home in the event of a power
outage. Most of those units come with that software now.
Handy if you leave your computer on while you're not home.

Well, you can have this newer storm, now, too!

But be careful playing human kite. Oh, a new toy to

LOL! That sums it up very well! And we have become a society
that is totally dependent on computers, grand machines that
they are. <just a BIT of sarcasm there) I was at the grocery
store last year, during a nasty thunderstorm. Power went
out, store could no longer function. The registers were
inoperable. They did have a generator, but it only produced
enough power to light a small portion of the store (so
people could see to get out), and only for a short time.
Take those cash registers away from the employees, and I've
found most have no clue as to how to figure making change
for purchases. <g>

lol! hub is one of those cash persons - hates checks and
can't for the life of him figure out how to swipe a
credit card. <G> I have joked in the past that we will
become a cashless society. I now believe it will be
sooner than later.

CHANGE FOR PURCHASES? People use cash?

Joyce said:

LOL! That sums it up very well! And we have become a
society that is totally dependent on computers, grand
machines that they are. <just a BIT of sarcasm there) I
was at the grocery store last year, during a nasty
thunderstorm. Power went out, store could no longer
function. The registers were inoperable. They did have a
generator, but it only produced enough power to light a
small portion of the store (so people could see to get
out), and only for a short time. Take those cash registers
away from the employees, and I've found most have no clue
as to how to figure making change for purchases. <g>
