Hi,
I'm moving from New York in a few weeks..
I have a Mac desktop that is less than a year old.. works really well for my needs..
Anyway, will I have to pay some sort of tax if I bring it? Also, what compatibility issues might I face, in terms of power useage, etc.??
Thanks so much. On my budget, I really don't want to have to buy a new machine..

Most modern PCs have a toggle in the back to switch, or they may even accept both right off the bat. Check the plug for the power cable, does it say something like "100-220V" nearby?hanriktan wrote:please check if you mac is on 110 or 220 Volts. Singapore is using 220 V here... but if your system is a 110V i advise you to buy a transformer here to do a step down...
