Hiya i have tried to search but i am still not getting the answers i want, I have been told its different in Cairns with the humidity than to other places in OZ, i can find it on the search about NSW but not Cairns,

Thanks :)

Re: Do you no the answer
 

What's humidity got to do with it?

Re: Do you no the answer
 

Power is the same except for the powercuts, your TV might not work though as the tuners are on a different frequency. I'm told this is something that can be altered but unless your TV is very new I might consider leaving it behind and buying a nice big plasma once you get here.

Take some extension leads with you, then you only have to change the one plug for your PC to work (connect PC, speakers and Monitor into extension lead). Do the same for the TV and vid/dvd. You will need a set up box or Foxtel satellite to see the channels on the TV.

Re: Do you no the answer
 

You can just buy the Australian version of the PC plugs and that takes care of the monitor and PC at least, the cables are exactly the same just have the country plugs on the end that plugs into the wall :)

Oh my god not this f****** question again.

Why will my tv work, what is the power like, is the sun still yellow, is the sky still blue.

do some research, I am worried that people have not found out the basics for themselves, (I know that people will say, posting questions on here is research).
I agree with that if the questions had never come up before. FFS

Why does'nt a moderator instead of shifting everything around all the time. Do a sticky for idiots to look at with the Ten most frequently asked questions.

And set up some basic grammar/spelling rules. People with English as a third language can do better than this.

Re: Do you no the answer
 

Bit harsh:frown:

The OP has searched but was concerned that things were different in Cairns. It is a big move and people want to make the right decisions, so I don't see any problem here. If you didn't like the question you could have ignored it....

Hope your question has been answered KerryRyan....

I didn't know they'd gone :confused:

Shouldn't that be a full stop at the end of confused.

Re: Do you no the answer
 

I think it was a bit harsh too. Every state is different here, different rules and standards across state boundaries so who knows, it could have been different way up north. Afterall wasn't it only a few years ago you had to change trains at the borders because the guages were all different! Also Cairns is very humid and unless you have AC and and de-humidifier who knows if a TV or computer would last very long unless you took precautions..

:thumbdown:Aussie_Pom, are you being bullied and having to go to OZ for new friends, with an attitude like that you wont get any, no community spirit, very selfish, i wish you sunburn, oh and hope everything goes well:sneaky:
