Not all companies (owners) like to operate that way.

That's your decision. I would not dream of not using it in a corporate 
setting. Normal irregularities in power chew away on electronics. 

For my customers the loss of work and interruptions are more important than 
$80/head/2 years. Of course we all have different priorities. 

But I thought we were talking about a PBX? Where the lost call can mean lost 
business. Certainly you keep your servers on UPS? Why not the PBX? 

Hell, I have 10K just at home. Because I can't stand interruptions due to 
power. True, I live in Florida, and we have a lot of brownouts.
