Alex,
I've been using APC's PowerChute for about a month and so far all has gone well,
meaning I haven't seen it in action yet.  However, the UPS has a test switch
on the front that simulates a power outage and signals the computer.  I tested 
PowerChute this way and it seems to work fine.  Complaint: it does not
seem to echo to the console every time and most importantly, there is no
mail sent to indicate that the power failed nor is there a log file.  From what
I understand, there is an update to the software that will be available ADN 
(any day now).
