Running a 220v computer in a 110v environment

Hi, This I have to take issue with (though I'm probably quibbling over semantics?). The purpose of the fuse in the PLUG is to protect the power cable between the plug and the device from carrying an unsafe current in the event of a problem with that CABLE. The device itself should contain a second fuse which is there to protect the PSU in the event of a failure or overload. At least that's what we were taught when I did an electronics course a few years back. TTFN - Pete. -- Hardware & Software Engineer. Sound Engineer.
