It uses the standard Acer power supply- a switching power supply which inputs either 110 or 240v.

Lucky you. I ordered one at around 3.30 yesterday and got the email this morning that my order had been cancelled and my money refunded. Bummer.

It's strange that they seem to be randomly cancelling some orders..
I ordered Saturday with google checkout, got the shipped notice yesterday.

Strange alright, ordered mine Friday via Google Checkout and Friday evening it was marked as shipped with a 'Parcel Force' tracking number.
Feck all tracking info though when I try to track it, only get 'Express AM'

FWIW the last item I got via Parcel force had been delivered by GLS an hour before the tracking details on the website even showed that it was in the country!

You'll have to copy the disc onto a memory stick or external harddrive and install from there. Or I suppose you could share a drive on another PC on your home network (assuming) and download to the desktop and install from there.
