Sometimes I think we should segregate this list by continent to diminish
the gnashing of teeth :-) but on the other hand some of us will sometimes
pay the way for EU (AU, etc.) kit, and I'd hate to miss out on it! :-)
I did spor the smiley... but I do think this is a bad idea.
Techncial issues are mcuh the same al round the world. If soembody in the
States is repairign a pERQ, or an HP9830 or soemthing else I've seriously
worked on, I can probably help for all I have by machines running off
240V mains...
While it might not be sensible to ship large minicomputers between
continents, it's certainly possible to ship PCBs at not to high a cost.
I've done it many times. I haec had the odd complete (and heavy) device
sent to me - -shipping was expensive (as expensive and the unit), but I'd
ener have got one otherwise.
