Answer 1 :
you just need to get your self an international power conversion kit... they are not too expensive but it will allow you to use almost everything you take with you over there.
Answer 2 :
k - frequent traveler here - laptops have been made from the day one with frequent travelers in mind so they operate on both 110 V and 220 V so that is NO PROBLEM you can travel with it anywhere in the world and yr power adapter will work - HOWEVER in Europe electric socket is slightly different so before you leave U.S. go to Radio Shack and buy European socket adapter and attach it to the end of yr power cord - ANOTHER THING - due to regional codings of DVDs yr DVD player in yr lapop WILL NOT work with DVDs bought in Europe solution: go to http://www.videolan.org and download VLC Player - previous versions of VLC Player had the ability to play ALL regional codings of DVDs BUT movie studios were after them to abandon that practice so i don't really know if the latest version of VLC Player will play other regional codings of DVDs or only North American coding of DVD - so when you come to Europe borrow DVD from yr friend in Europe and try it to play in VLC Player - if it plays great - if it doesn't - well you'll not be able to play European DVDs in yr computer if you buy any computer program in Europe it will work in yr laptop (same operating system of course) so that is also no problem one more thing - wireless is the same anywhere - wireless standards are made under the umbrella of the ITU (International Telecommunication Union) and they are same throughout the world
