What component is key to a long life for a computer?
Good power supply and good cooling.
What is the most common problems with PC power supplies?
The most common problem lies with the user rather than the power supply itself.The computer user hardly ever thinks about his power supply so long as it works.Therefore they'll overburden the power supply by adding hard drives until it's overwhelmed.When you add power hungry componenents to your computer you have to consider whether or not you have adequate power.WHen you have a problem with your power supply in general your computer stops working and you have to spend 30$ for another.
Can you get info off computer with failed power supply?
Yes, as long as the rest of the computer is still intact (eg. motherboard, hard drive etc.) You can either: Get a new power supply for the computer and everything should work as normal (power up and everything) Take out the hard drive and put it into another computer to recover the data (there are many ways of doing this, try googling it - that should help.
What are the primary functions of an uniteruptable power supply?
The primary function of an uninterpretable power supply, or UPS, is to continue to give an electrical device, such as a computer, power when normal house power is disrupted. Normally the UPS only provides enough power to use the device long enough to properly shut it down.

It is unsafe both for the computer and you to work on a computer while it is plugged into a power supply. If you mean simply to use the computer, then no, it is perfectly safe as long as the generator doesn't generate more power than the computer can use. (probably 120 V)
How do computer users protect their computers from too much electricity?
To protect a computer completely from electrical problems you would have to keep it unplugged. Unfortunately this makes it useless. Using surge protection on the power supply is a simple and relatively cheap protection from spikes in the power supply. A UPS or uninteruptible power supply can be set up to allow the computer to run for a period of time after a breakdown in the power supply. These are more expensive the longer they can supply power, and are often set up to supply power for just long enough to do a save and tidy shutdown of the computer.
Can you plug in a netbook to electric power supply?
Yes you can connect your Netbook to electric power supply. Otherwise I am using an Dell Intel Atom embedded Netbook which has a great battery life, around 7-8 Hrs., but to have long battery backup, one needs to get it changed by connecting it though an electric power supply.

What the use of computer UPS?
A computer UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is designed to provide power to a computer system if normal power fails. The length of time a UPS will support a computer depends on the capacity of the UPS and the draw of the system being supported. Properly configured and installed, most systems will monitor the UPS and begin a normal shutdown when notified by the UPS that a power outage is in process. Some are large enough to maintain computer operations long enough for backup power generation to come online.
