Quoting from the official spec sheet for the SE:
	Line voltage: 90 to 140 volts AC; 170 to 270 volts AC
	Frequency: 47 to 63 hertz
	Maximum power: 100 watts

Knowing Apple, they probably did this because it was more trouble to 
manufacture and inventory two types of Macintoshes, so they decided to
build one universal power-supply version.  This is also true of
the Macintosh II; its monitors will also work at 140 to 170 volts,
if you can find an outlet with such a voltage. :-)
