i am going to be in the Netherlands next year & am taking my Mac with me.
The system in question is a MacPlus (w/ext disk drive) and Imagewriter I.
          
I'd appreciate any information/advice anyone has to offer on taking all
this stuff to europe. Some particular questions are:

-- should i take my Migent 1200 baud modem? will it work with
    phone lines in the netherlands?                         
-- do i need anything other than voltage converters & plug adapters?
-- the Imagewriter I is supposed to work at european voltages. should i
    trust this?
-- any advice re: customs either going to netherlands or returning to the u.s.?
-- i am thinking of shipping my printer by air freight. comments?
                                                                
any other info anyone has to offer would be greatly appreciated.
