Dell is yet again offering their (well it is actually an APC) SmartUPS
1500 at the silly price of $199 (including shipping).  Their normal
price is $699 (not including shipping) which is of course about $200 to
$300 more than any sane company charges for it, but at the same time
$199 is about $200 less than any sane company charges too (not
accounting for shipping).  It works with serial or USB using apcupsd and
is very simple to setup.  If you are in need of a workout, just move it
around a bit.

So in other words if you are considering getting a UPS and want the best
UPS you can run on a 110V 15A outlet, then this is the one to get.

I already got one last time they had this offer, and my dad got one the
time before that.  I know someone mentioned not having a UPS and really
having to get around to getting one in the last couple of days, so now
there is no good excuse left.

I suppose the kingston 4GB USB key for $34 is not a bad deal either for
that matter.
