 Hi this problem may be of general interest of all PC users but
since I have already decided to buy an ATARI 520ST and since this
news group is VERY informative I would like to adress this question
about system compatability here.
 I would like to buy a system that :
1. I will be able to use it here
2. I will be able to use it in Israel where theu use european
   standard.
 I thought of two possible configuration :
1. The current standard system with the 70Hz scanned-screen
2. A system with a SONY TV as monitor since these TV systems  
   have the option of 110/220V, 50/60Hz and NTSC/PAL so
   I will be able to use it also as a standard TV in the Holyland.
  I will appreciate any comments on :
1. Wil it work or not, why and whynot.
2. Any reference which may clear this problem
3. General problems when transferring PCs from here ( the promisedland)
   to there ( The .....)
  Yosi
p.s. What are the system standards used by our European friends ?
