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.
