Re: using a Thinkpad in Europe
I have had 3 ThinkPads, all of which have universal power supplies. In fact that applies to all laptops I have had (3 IBM ThinkPads, a Fujitsu Lifebook, a Toshiba Libretto, an Acer Aspire One, and 3 Sony VAIOs). I would be very surprised if your daughter's ThinkPad does not have a universal voltage power supply.
A plug adapter would be fine for temporary use, but I suggest the power cord be replaced if she will be there for a whole semester. Most, if not all, power supplies have detachable power cords that can easily be swapped, and they are cheap. |
