Exactly the same as in my VS3100/M38.  

This is mildly interesting as the label on the back of my case reads:

           V ~ 100-120  A 3.0
           V ~ 220-240  A 1.7
------------------------------
V ~ 100-120/220-240   Hz 50-60
A   5.8/3.2            W 348

Will the real power rating please stand up!  Or are we talking power
output vs power consumption here?  At least I'm now relatively certain
that the VS3100's use dual mode power supplies.
