600's on film

Post by isettajoe »

An orange coupe appears on the freeway in the first few minutes of "Up in Smoke".  The film "Malcom" has a short bank robbery scene with a yellow coupe.  The scene before shows it in a garage. That's all.  I agree with Miles -- it's a ho-hum movie but it's worth it if you can get it cheap.  But don't forget that European video cassettes won't play on US  VCR's without being converted and vice versa.

Re: 600's on Voltage

Post by timk11 »

Most of Europe is running on 230 volts. They can get a voltage
reducer, but the other thing is they are running on 50mhz and we are
60mhz or the other way 'round so the you may not be able to view it
because of the TV frequency also. The best thing to do is convert it
to PAL (their format) and many places in the USA can do that.
Japan as I recall is using our VHS format. A friend of mine in
Germany is a big fan of Macintosh Stereos sold in the USA, so he has
a power converter, but that's just a stereo.
