How does the PSX hardware handle NTSC/PAL?

As the title says. I live in of the former PAL-countries, but I have a US Playstation since I want to run games in NTSC, and the Japanese units won't work with Unirom. However, I have heard that some consoles aren't inherently NTSC or PAL, and will run the software at the speed the software was designed for regardless of the region of the console. Is the Playstation like this? I would like to play the PAL-versions of games by European studios, and it would be useful for the Net Yaroze collection.
