Ok guys, you all seem to be pretty clued up on this stuff, so maybe you can help me some more - It looks like I'm gonna have to bring my VCR and maybe DVD player with me to America when I move. Here in England our electrical sockets put out 240v while I think in America it's 110 (?) which means I will need a step up convertor to boost that 110 in order to power my machine. I've done some quick research and you can actually buy said convertor from Radio Shack. What I want to know is, can you get multi socket convertors, so I can plug 4 British appliances in and have them all work? That would save me from having to buy multiple convertors and also means I could bring my PC without having to open it up to install a new power supply. Any help is greatly appreciated - I have a lot of cool and obscure PAL VHS and DVDs and I am bringing them with me, whatever it takes (have you seen how crappy the American Back to the future DVD set looks compared to the british one?)

Incidentally, I believe the difference between PAL and NTSC players is that in Europe our TVs display more lines of pixels, giving a clearer picture, or something like that...
