Re: Apple IIgs 110V -> 220V, and VGA adapter?



Why not just get a voltage inverter to step down the power from the wall
plug like you would with any appliances from foreign countries?  Get a good
quality one, of course.  It'll be cheaper and faster than to fashion a new
PSU, I would think...  I do this when I need to run an US computer in HK.
They sell them at the corner electronic stores for next to nothing.
