    Foreign notebook compatability

    i live in the UK and have the opportunity of getting a French version of a sony notebook and sony LCD monitor.
    will i be able to use them with a UK PC and UK power sockets.
    i figured the only difference will be the power addaptor and hence could i get a transformer or something to make them run off the UK mains.
    are there any other differences (other than the keyboards!)
    does anyone know where i could get such a transformer from.
    many thanks
    is a flower best picked in it's prime or greater withered away by time?
    Talk about a dream, try to make it real.

      Just keep in mind that the adaptor can cost over 100£ depending on the model!
      According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...

          my compaq adaptor can run off 110-240V so I expect the sony one to be the same!
          hmm, if you get the notebook from France you will most likely get the french version of windows.

              If I remember correctly it's 230V in Frances so there shouldn't be any problems.
              When you own your own business you only have to work half a day. You can do anything you want with the other twelve hours.
