Hartford, CT. Lines: 19 * There have been several comments about using 6300s and 7300/3B1s in Europe. The question is about power and it has been generalized too much. It is true that the 6300 has a jumper in the power supply to switch from 110 to 220 volts. With the green monitor, this is all you have to do to use it in Europe. The same is *not* necessarily true about the 7300/3B1. The 6300 is made by Olivetti, the 7300 by Convergent Technologies, and the only thing they have in common is the label they are shipped with. I do not know if the 7300/3B1 has this jumper or the equivalent, but before anyone assumes they will have no problem moving a 7300 to Europe, they need to check this out.
