UPS and Surge protection

I need some advice with the purchase of a surge protection device for my Television, CD/DVD player, Amplifier and computer.
I was considering getting a basic strip, but I live in the lightning capital of the world and have become concerned now that I have lost two computers that were suppose to be surge protected.
I was considering a unit that offers both surge protection and battery backup. What are the operational differences between computer surge suppressors and those marketed to the AV group other then the huge price differences? Is there a problem using a battery backup unit with A/V equipment?
