The guy will be OK.  Japanese desktop computers have 115v/235v switches on
the rear too remember and a PC bought in Tokyo works fine in Osaka.  Can you
image the number of pc's being brought in for repair if they weren't able to
cope with these small differences.  We're not talking about the UK with it's
240v.  But even then - a simple flick of a switch and the computer will run
fine.

The monitor is an LCD model which runs off an a/c adaptor I expect.  Just
check the adaptor.  I'm sure he'll find it rated for 100v to 240v 50-60hz.
