Its storm season in Brisbane right now, they usually hit in the late arvo. My house is situated on top of a mountain ridge so I can actually see the storms coming. You should see me running around unplugging things when a storm is brewing!
jvastine, I did have it all hooked up to a power surge protector board (it was about $100, not just a cheapie) but the surge came through the satellite / phone lines. I did not realize until a few weeks ago that this could happen! It took out everything connected to satellite (phones, tv, computers and all things attached to them). Fortunately insurance has covered all but $200 deductable, its just taking forever to get everything fixed or replaced.
cheers!
