System used outside North America.

I certainly hope this has not been covered before.

I would like to take my System to South Africa and would appreciate if someone could tell me if it will work there.

I realize that the power supply would require changing, but am unsure if there is anything else which may gum up the works.

Yes,
Providing the PC's power supply is compatible, or changed, (220-240v) and the monitor is also compatible, all you should need to do is change the regional settings for the correct time zone. Dont forget the different power plug(s) either.
