Can you use a 220 laptop in a 110 outlet?

The laptop has a power supply that connects between the laptop and the wall outlet. Looking at the power supply, the input voltage will show a working voltage from 100 to 240 volts. You may need a pin changing adapter because the pin configuration is different between 110 outlets and 220 volt outlets. Get past the pin configuration difference the computer will operate on both voltages through the power supply as long it is in the voltage range stated above.

Are fans in computers ac or DC?

the work is done in the power supply box (the metal box part in the computer, the one you plug the power cord into). It converts AC to DC via transformers, rectifiers, and voltage regulators and has extra circuitry in there to make sure that the voltage doesn't ripple (with the changes in the AC voltage) or spike (e.g., when you first turn it on)
