CiKoTiC be careful with dual surge protection. I've heard, and I believe it's right that two surge protectors are worse than one. If you have two surge protectors it will take almost twice the spike to trip the equipment. So with two it's possible to fry equipment that is on two surge protectors that would have been safe on one. Also belkins will replace equipment that got fried if it was hooked up to their surge protectors. Also guys don't forget your data connection. Cable, DLS/phone lines have more of a chance of frying your gear than the outlet. The transformers and circuit breakers on the electric lines will help protect your power but there is little to nothing to protect your data lines.
