[net.micro] Advice needed about using COMPAQ on 240V/50HZ

byronl@azure.UUCP (Byron Lunz) (01/06/85)

I have been asked to recommend purchase of a PC which will be used 
on 240V/50HZ power (specifically, in Nairobi, Kenya).  I have decided on
the COMPAQ for several reasons, but am still concerned about the power
situation.  I will need to run the computer both here and in Kenya, and
I believe that by using a small 240/120 transformer I will be able to
run the computer on 120V/50HZ there.  

I would appreciate response by mail from anyone with a knowledgable opinion.
