Will PC work ok in Oz???
 
Hello guys,
Can anyone let me know if it's ok to bring your PC??? I know alot of TV's & videos won't work, so I thought I better check on whether the PC will be ok as we were thinking of bringing ours.
Thanks
Shell

Yes of course it will as long as you change the plugs.

Ditto - we took a PC from UK over to Oz; it worked without problems. As a general rule (there are exceptions), where the Brits had an Empire up until at least the 1950s:

- people drive on the left
- the mains voltage and frequency are same as UK (even if the plug fittings aren't!)
- the telephones have a similar ring to UK
- and they speak English! :)

Cheers guys, you have put my mind at rest now.
I thought the PC would probably be ok in Oz, but just wanted to confirm.
Thanks
