A *switching* PS!? That's odd. All 1571's I've seen have linear power
supplies, with 7805's and 7812's regulating the supplies. Converting
these beasts only requires to swap the transformer with a 220V version
instead of a 125V one.

Unless I'm completely mistaken, ofcourse. Happens all-to-often lately :(
