I currently have the following hooked up to my surge suppressor.
Samsung 30 Inch Slimfit CRT TV
Panasonic DMP-BD60 Bluray player
Toshiba HD-A2 HDDVD
Xbox 360
JBL E250 Northridge 12 inch subwoofer
Onkyo TX-SR805 A/V Receiver (130W x 7)
Dish Network HDDVR
This weekend I will be replacing my Slimfit with a Panasonic 42 inch Plasma TV which I assume will probably draw less power than the Slimfit.
But my question is, with all of this nice equipment, is this surge suppressor adequate? I spent about $45 on it on sale a couple of years ago.

The thing that concerns me, is that it doesn't have network connections for my Blu-ray player, or my Xbox 360 which are both hooked up to my DSL Modem directly.
I looked at this product:

It certainly costs more (though has fewer outlets). Am I going to gain anything from something like this? It only has one network cable. Or would I be just as protected if I bought a better surge suppressor for my computer and ran the phone line through it before it reached my modem?
I know this is alot of questions, but I also used to have my power flicker in my office in the other room sometimes if I had alot of stuff running, though I haven't noticed that in probably 6 months. Is that dangerous for my equipment, and should I consider a voltage stabilizer? The cost is certainly prohibitive, but if I'm doing long term damage, I'm willing to consider it. Thanks in advance, sorry for all of the questions.
