You can use a Notebook even outside U.S. The Power adapter supplied with the all Notebook is dual voltage. The Notebook utilizes an auto switching power supply for voltages between 120 and 230 volts. There is no need to purchase any voltage adapter. All that is required is the plug Adapter for the wall outlet.
You can use the Notebook any where in the world.
Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You shouldnt fry it as europe used lower volages 110v normally, just get a plug adaptor & do some google research on the country, just typ in on google "domestic power supply in (country) & power outlets"
even if your power supply runs on 240v 110v wont damage it, might take longer to charge though.
Hope this help's !
This is a copy from the Radio Shack site. The quick answer is go to pretty much any electronic store or most travel stores and buy a Foreign Power Converter.
AC to AC Power Conversion (Foreign Voltage Converters)
Purpose of Converter / Explanation of Operation
AC-to-AC
voltage converters, or travel converters, are designed to convert the
voltage used in a foreign country to the voltage required for a
particular AC device. These converters are either transformer-based or solid-state,
and this affects what type of devices the converter can power. In
addition to converting the power, you will often need to also use a plug adapter.
Plug adapters are generally either built into the converter, or
provided as separate parts. They are also sold separately, for use with
multi-voltage devices that are designed to convert the power internally.
Selecting a Converter
These
are one of the more confusing of the power conversion devices. Because
of the range of voltages, plug types and converter designs, many
customers find that they need help determining exactly which converter
they need. To aid in that process, we have put together a short worksheet
to help you determine what type of converter is needed: We recommend
that you print out thi sheet when taking a number of different devices
to a different country.
First, you should determine the
electrical requirements (voltage, frequency, and wattage) for the
device(s) you will be taking with you. This information is generally on
a label or embossed into the back or bottom of the device. Make a note
of the voltage(s), frequency or frequencies, and the wattage indicated
for each device.
Next, you will need to know the electrical requirements for the country you are going to be visiting.
Next,
you will need to compare your equipment requirements to the country's
information to determine whether you need a Step-up or Step-down
Voltage converter.
Once you know what type of converter or adapter you need, consult our list of travel power conversion products to find one that meets your requirements.
