Actually, yes, earlier this afternoon it seems at least a part of North San Diego County had a blackout, for about 40 minutes in my area. When the power suddenly went off at my office, you immediately heard screams of anguish--obviously some of my co-workers had not "saved" their work on their computers.
However, I was not affected and kept working as usual since the battery on my Apple PowerBook G4 laptop automatically kicks-in.
