Hi everybody,
I'm going to buy an IBM/AT compatible machine here, but I'd like to 
use it in Europe, too. Unfortunately the electric system is different.
I know that there is no problem with the computer itself, because its
power supply is switchable, but what can I do with the monitor? I have
never heard about an SVGA monitor which has switchable power supply. 
Of course I could transform the voltage of the european system to 
110 volt, but also the frequency is different. Does this cause any 
problem? 
Does anybody have experience about this? I would very appreciate if
somebody could help me.
Thanks in advance.
