I know that I've read a lot about those problems especially from the kernel
traffic page, but I've never seemed to had an issue with my board.  I do get
the timing warnings from the 2.4 kernels, but as I said it never was noticable
to me.  

As for the APC UPS's, I actually have my system connected to one of those that
I had bought at Sam's last fall. I see the cable modem as the culprit, but I
can't prove it.
