Actually, for a brief period some Macs had a switch on the back that you had to switch between 110 and 240V (and a big yellow sticker to alert you to this fact!). Fortunately the power supplies are auto-switching these days.


The yellow sticker was not enough for one person I heard about. They ignored it and thought the switch was the power button. They managed to turn the computer off...forever!
