Some businesses don't bother with a backup battery system...

..because the computers they bought already have their own. Yup, they're laptop computers. What
better way to have the whole machine, monitor, and built-in backup system in one? Yes, you would
need to buy a separate keyboard and mouse, but that's nothing. Again, eBay has some good ones,
even those that have come off lease programs have it.
