Best UPS for Linux?

[Thomas H. George]

I must replace my Belkin UPS which was damaged by a power surge.  I have 
been happy enough with it and the Bulldogdry software for linux.  Its 
internal software got fried when we were hit by a lightning indiced 
[pwer surge but the computer behind it was uscathed.

I ask the question, "What is the best UPS for Linux."  only because in 
response to a recent posting someone asked why I didn't buy a UPS from a 
manufacturer which explicitly supported Linux.  I checked five different 
manufacturers at CompUSA and ran several google searches.  Every UPS I 
found, Belkin included,  explicitly supported only Microsoft and 
MacIntosh.  Belkin, I know, does include shutdown software for Linux 
although there is nothing to this effect on the box.  Based on my 
experience I will stick with Belkin unless someone can point me to a 
manufacturer with the courage to put "Supports Linux" on the outside of 
their boxes.
