How much protection will the PST-8 give against ...
How much protection will the PST-8 give against nearby lightning strikes? I know everybody says that nothing can protect against a direct strike, but I'm just wondering how much protection I can expect if there was a strike, say, on the transformer across the street.
Unfortunately lighting is not a fixed set amount. It is impossible to say how strong a particular strike will be and how far away will be affected.

Is the power plug angled? I need something low profile and angled to fit behind a piece of furniture. The manufacturer's specs say it includes a "36 degree NEMA 15 plug". Does it stick out far from the wall?
Yes, the plug is angled. It sits flat against the wall and protrudes probably 5/8".

My understanding is that you are not supposed to daisy-chain surge suppressors. So is it really ok to plug my APC UPS (which has surge protection) into the PST-8? Isn't that plugging one surge protector into another, which everybody says not to do?
UPS should be plugged directly to a outlet.

can I use a short extension cord between my computer and the input socket of this unit to get around the limited spacing of the outlets? Will the extra cord limit the protection?
Yes, you can use an extension cord although I would recommend making sure it is rated to handle the device before using it.
