You need to talk to APC - they should have a gurantee on their surge suppressor good worth X of $$$.

Right about Micron - no manufacturer will cover power surges.

It actually MELTED!?!?! Geez, you are lucky it didn't catch fire! Or electrocute you!

Homeowners/Renters insurance might cover it as well. Especially if lightning related.

Related laptop nightmare story. Knew a coworker who was so proud of her kickin, no-name laptop. She had leased it.

Well, pretty soon the company that made it goes under and sells the lease to a financial company. Of course after this happens, she starts having power supply trouble. She calls, but the company is gone under and third party service people say they'll look at it but no gurantees about parts, etc. and at a rate of about $100/hr.

She still has to pay the lease fee however, the finance company doesn't care about the laptop, they just want the money.

I think she was talking to a lawyer ...
