LoL

yeah u r.....................

the power net in UK works on 240 volts i think,

malta is prolly either 230 (like rest of urop) or 110 (like us).......... but this doesnt matter @ all.............

a PC works on 5/12 volt.......... but this is made with a transformer.......

so internal shit aint a problem....... just dont use stuff from urop that needs its own power source.... and especially nothing from the us.......... itll blow up (transformin from 240 2 10 volts instead of from 110 2 5, aint good 4 ur puter)......
