And, to bring up my perpetual suggestion... consider getting a whole-house surge supressor installed. They're far more capable than any surge supressor you buy at the store, and they protect *everything* in the house -- computers, phones, refrigerators, TVs, microwaves, stereo equipment... just route the main electrical, phone, and cable lines through it, and it protects them *all*.
Mine was about $150, and another $50 or so to have installed. Way cheap, compared to the cost of replacement and downtime.
That said, I'm glad everyone's okay (including the fearless Choc  ).
