We have the grounding problem worked out, and I use local 1KVa stabilizers on every outlet I plug anything important into. As for IT guys and power, that's just funny. Because everywhere I go, people are complaining about their computers. Dead power supplies, fried batteries. And that's because they aren't grounding them and they aren't using stabilizers. So the IT guys in Uganda need to fuss more about power unless they want to be in the business of replacing batteries and power supplies forever! Thanks for the comment, Jake!
