It's amazing how many places people want computers that cannot use UPSes or even small batteries to provide for a controlled shutdown.

- flemhans 6y agoManaged 500 physical machines over the course of 20 years, no UPS, never had a problem where power loss caused data corruption or loss.

- drewzero1 6y agoI'm a little surprised we don't see small battery backup systems built into PCs or available as an add-on. One thing I really like about laptops is that they essentially come with a built-in UPS, and I would love (some of) the desktops I work with to have that functionality built-in as well. Somebody please correct me if this thing exists and is available, I'd love to be wrong!
