I'd take Eaton Powerware (fka Best Power) over APC any day.

http://powerquality.eaton.com/Products-services/Backup-Power-UPS/5125.aspx  
or similar for this application.   I'd take one of those up versus the 
same size APC SmartUps any day.

BTW, another thing the 'good' UPS's do, more important than 'pure 
sinusoidal output' for computer purposes*, is buck/boost voltage regulation.




* if you're running audio gear off a UPS, you definitely want the 
sinusoidal output, but thats another market entirely.
