Greetings all,

I know that surge protection is important, but I find the selection of
Surge protectors confusing, and I'm sure some of you guys are confused
too. Does a $50 surge protector offer better protection than one that's
free after mail in rebate ($9 in store)?

Well, I bought this one Belkin Surgemaster that is rated 592 joules
maximum energy disspiation  and it has a 15 amp circuit breaker. Now,
what is this all about?  Is a circuit breaker that important, and what's
the difference between a surge protector with and without it?

I've got a thousand questions I could ask regarding these, so I'll just
sum it up in one question - How can I go about making sure that my
computer is well protected for an affordable price, and what should I
look for when buying a surge protector?
