Mac mini power: USA to UK
Hi Folks, I'm wondering if I can take my Mac mini on holiday with me :P
I'm going to be in the United Kingdom on work for quite a long time and want to take my mac with me. Can I take it with me and use it as normal over there? I'm assuming I'll need to get a new plug (maybe even just a new extension cord part?) but will everything else be OK? Can the power adapter cope with the difference in power supply? Any and all tips welcome!
I think the power supply is the biggest/only issue but if anyone knows of anything else can you flag it up here for me.
Cheers.

Inappropriate?Yup, you can :) the Mac Mini takes a line voltage of 100 to 240V AC. The only thing you have to do is buy a cord that matches the 3 flat prong used in the UK (Apple stores have it in stock most of the time)

Thank you very much Alex. I might even see if my employer will buy it for me! :P -
Inappropriate?Hey, my Mac Mini PS states very clearly it allows 110V-120V. Everywhere forums say there is only 1 version, but I don't like to blow up my Mac when I'm over in Europe for a tradeshow... Anybody looked at the PS but still dared to plug it in?
Thanks! Otto
