</div>Yes, this is a collision in my hash tables that I have to fight constantly.<br>

</div>Wow. I was not expecting anyone to offer to ship me one, but I'll cheerfully<br>

</div>That's OK. As I explained, I'm not in a hurry; as long as it can ship before<br>
the spring/summer storm season I don't expect there will be an issue.<br>

<br>
</div>What's the QOS difference?</blockquote><div><br>well both are line-interactive (I thought Nova was an offline!).<br>imo, Nova is sufficient if you don't have a dedicated server room, since Evolution as a noisy fan and a bit bigger in terms of footprint. Nova also doesn't provide manageable outlets, and the design is less cute than Evolution.<br>
</div></div><br>Have a look at the brochures, and tell me back your preference:<br><a href="http://www.mgeops.com/index.php/products__1/120v_208v_products/ups/nova_avr">http://www.mgeops.com/index.php/products__1/120v_208v_products/ups/nova_avr</a><br>

If you can do that quickly, that would be nice since I have another providing underway for the US.<br><br>btw, you can also contact me back to start working on the documentation. I'm mostly done with the big things.<br>
