all you need is one intelligent power converter (110-240; 50/60), which ibm makes, one power cord - i prefer a 240 volt one though i don't know that it really matters, and a series of adapters to deal with different plug configs. alternatively, assuming you have the intelligent power pack, you can probably buy a computer power cord in any country you go to for not that much. the end that goes into the power pack is universal; the end that goes into the wall will vary by country you are in. when i was in france a while back i didn't have an adapter with me so i just found a computer a colleague wasn't using, unplugged the power cord from the back of his computer or monitor, and plugged the universal end into my ibm intelligent power pack. and, away i went. regards, al Alden S Klovdahl / alden.klovdahl@anu.edu.au / fax: +61 62 49 05 25 Sociology Arts / Australian National University / Canberra ACT Australia 0200 On Thu, 8 Aug 1996, Bill Bryan wrote: > > Instead of paying a lot of money buying IBM's power modules, for > different countries, you would be better off just buying a good universal > power converter with all of it's adapters.
