We had them in Windsor before we moved.. one of them "died", the other is on 
the router... I just have to get another one for my system..

Yeah.. In this case if I'd had a UPS box on my system in one of those outlets 
affected by the zap, I guess I'd at least have had the 30min. or whatever it 
gives you to find that darned socket that tripped :)

Take care,
Janis
