TheBrammies Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 yes it will but you will need to change the plug thats all but if you are going over soon i would buy one when you get there then if you have any problems you can take it back.

TheBrammies Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 wireless is an industry standard so should be exactly the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrammies Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 found this if you read it carefully it says Australian standard is the same as European standard (uk) so yes it will work Intel examines wireless card compliance claim: News - Hardware - ZDNet Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Anyone buying a vista computer should consider 2Gb as a minimum memory spec, yes it will work with 1Gb, but of that iGB 70% of it will be used just for the operating system. leaving just 30$ of the memory free. With an XP machine 1Gb you would have pnly lost 110mb to the OS, which means that an XP computer with 500Mb will probably outperform a Vista computer with 1Gb.
