No Michael, that is not exactly correct. All parts of a computer are
vulnerable to an EMP if it is very strong. Having a cable plugged into
it (which acts as an antenna) makes it much more vulnerable. Having a
phone line plugged in can be even more vulnerable if the the cable does
not have h
ohh so the ethernet PORTS are vulnerable, regardless of if s cable
is attached to it. I think you mean it this way because there is no cable
attached to the ethernet portOtherwise the instructions don't make sense.

Make sure the person you buy the battery from knows the date of
manufacture. Batteries age and if the battery you are thinking of
buying is more than 2 years old, find a new one. This is especially
true of sealed lead acid batteries (SLA) used for UPSs.

I actually cheat with the battery. I leave it in as a battery backup in
case the power goes outit shortens the life, but they become less
expensive as the laptop ages. But test them regularly - as they age and
can't hold a charge, they begin to heat up.
The cooling fan is a good ideaI keep
The battery and screen are the least heat tolerate parts. If you can remove
the battery and put the laptop on a cooling platform. And keep it clean!

I have been running Dell Vostro 1520 laptop for about 5 years practically
non-stop without any issues. I have cleaned dust bunnies out the fan a
couple of times. YMMV with other laptops.

I explained that earlier. ethernet ports are vulnerable. Wires pick up
from the air radio pulses generated by lightning and power surges.
This turns into voltage in the ethernet cable. Not frequent but it can
happen.
Also, only a proper ups, not a surge protector, can protect you from a
brow
Actually, not sure Tripp Lite makes great usps
but not sure about the isobar. If it's big or heavy, then
probably a UPS.
