Nope.  Smart-UPS is true sinewave and line-interactive.  Back-UPS is 60Hz
squarewave and switched.  Back-UPS Pro is also squarewave but has more
refined switching circuitry.

I just got my latest flier from Meci (www.meci.com), they sell brand new
surplus and list (all new in box):

APC Back-UPS 450VA for $75, 600VA for $115
APC Back-UPS Pro 650VA for $135, 1000VA for $185
APC Smart-UPS 1000VA for $240, 1400VA for $310, 1400VA rackmount for $365

If they've got any left in stock then those are some great deals.  Other
sizes available too.
