Why are surge protectors recommended with the use of a computer?
If the computer operates in an environment prone to fluctuating current/voltage, a surge protector will reduce or eliminate (most of) the variations and protect the sensitive electronics in the equipment. Failure to protect from voltage spikes could result in damage to hardware and/or loss of data.
Where can I get a network card for my laptop?

Two devices that can be used to protect computer from fluctuations in electricity?
You need a good power surge strip or a UPS. Make sure the computer plugs into the surge strip or the UPS, and then plug the strip or UPS into the wall. Some good UPS devices actually do power conditioning which is better, but more expensive.

Where online can someone find the Fry's Credit Card Rewards Calculator?

Why do we need to disconnect a computer?
It depends on what situation you are talking about. If you are referring to say lightning storms, you need to disconnect the power cord to prevent the possibility of lightning striking the line and sending a surge into your system. A lightning surge can be lethal to most systems. BTW, the power cord is the most obvious but any connection to the 'outside' is vulnerable. For instance, a phone cord can be a conduit for lightning if that line is struck. I have known people to disconnect the computer but not the monitor. When the lightning struck the power line the surge went through the monitor to fry the motherboard. Another disconnect scenario would be for instance if you were being actively attacked by a virus or hacker. Disconnecting the network/modem cable will generally stop the attack; unless of course the virus has already downloaded itself onto your hard drive and is attacking from within.
How do you wire a car stereo directly to the battery of a 1994 Saturn SL1?
i would just straight wire it all 3 ground to ground and constant and power to power...personally i would make sure your main power wire has an inline fuse(so your deck doesn't fry if you have power surge). I guess do the speakers however you want from there! Good luck

Is it bad to use a computer when it is lightning If so what happens?
Using a computer when it's stormy outside is not the wisest time to use it while it's plugged into a wall outlet. If you operate off of a laptop, it's still fine to use it while it's not plugged in. The main reason is if a surge hits your residence, it could possibly surge/fry any electronics plugged into your power outlet.
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.
Where do I buy USB network adaptors from?
You should get all of your USB adaptors at Fry's. They are the cheapest and they are generally the most versatile. There's no better stores whatsoever than Fry's.
