    Depends on the exchange rate.

    I do know that the UK is one of the cheapest places in Europe for Computer equipment.

    Also watch for software. a Spanish licence of Vista may not be legal in UK. And you will more than likely have trouble with hardware support.

    You also have to take into account if your bringing back a laptop from spain Customs may catch you and make you pay Duty. Which is more than the 17.5% vat we pay in shops. its a 50/50 gamble on that.

    To be honest you can pick up a laptop in the uk for as little as £350. Thats a pretty hard price to beat.

    it would probably run on 110 volts so you would need to get a converter/transformer which would bump the price up.

    have you looked on http://www.ebuyer.com/
