I prefer PK Electronics "Blackout Buster".  They're cheap.  They seem to
last *forever* (I own two that have easily outlived the APC 400 that I was
using), although the only signaling the computer gets about power loss is
essentially just an open/closed circuit you detect through a spare serial
port.
