IEC. Lots of things have them, and many of the power supplies are switching designs, so they accept from 50 to 250v and either 50 or 60Hz input, it all gets converted to DC anyway. Makes selling internationally a lot easier, one design and then shio the proper cord for your country. My guess would be that use of the IEC cord started outside the US. Nearly all mass market electronics sold in the US are made somewhere else. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
