Dunno about Austria, but in the local Tesco's (a supermarket) you can
pick up a reasonably specced PC laptop for a couple of hundred (i.e.
around $400).

Since all computer manufacture moved to the Far East, the price
difference between US and UK prices has not been all that great (mainly,
just VAT).
