I need recommendations on a good power converter for a professor who will
be on a research assignment in England.  She will be using a PC convertible.
It could be that she will only use the computer on its battery power.  The
charger would then be the only device plugged in directly to the converter.
I would hope though that the converter would allow dependable operation of
the charger or direct attachment of the computer.  I have heard bad stories
about plugging in cheap converters into electronic equipment.  It seems
peak to peak averaging can be a disaster for a computer.  Any recommendations
or suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.
