Answer 1 :
If you are using Euros then it will be cheaper to buy a laptop in the US. The Euro is currently worth $1.39 US dollars. A laptop costing $700.00 US would be about 504 Euros.
Answer 2 :
Goods I think are much cheaper in the US. One example was video games. I recall they sell games for 50 USD and EUR. The game is almost twice as much in Europe than in the US. For the exact same product! If you're American, buy it here because the prices in Europe aren't good once converted. If you're European, buy here because your dollar is stronger. Cheaper goods.

i was wondering how does the watts change? Like do i need any special cables or docks in order for it to work in Europe?

Answer 1 :
Most laptops are made to accept both 110 and 220. If not, you'll need a voltage converter. Either way, you'll need a plug adapter.

Have You Brought A Laptop To Europe?
Have You Brought A Laptop To Europe?
I already know about seperate plugs and voltage converters and whatnot. I want to know if it is practical for me to bring it. I'm going for 3 weeks so internet connection over that time would be really swell. especially for updating my blog and uploading pics so I dont have to bring so many memory cards. please answer if you have firsthand experiences only- will it help me or will it just be a hassle?

Answer 1 :
Well, if it is a question of space, which takes up more space, the laptop or the memory cards? It depends on what else you're doing while you are there, but if I had room, I'd bring it. You could download or bring movies to watch too. But if space is an issue, there are always internet cafes you could go to if you really needed to get on the internet.
Answer 2 :
well if you are going with a tour group you won't have much time to use the laptop. but it is nice to be able to communicate with the rest of the world and its great for uploaing pics. the first time i went i didn't bring mine. and i went with a tour group with people my age like in their early 20's. i was out doing stuff from getting up at 5am and not getting back to the hotel until 11pm so i didn't even miss my computer and i just took a film camera not digital so i didn't have to worry about uploading pics. the second time on the other hand i went with a tour company that at the time i didn't know it was gonna be with slightly older people like in their 40's-50's and a few older then that so we didn't move quite to fast but also we didn't see quite so much so i had a bit of down time and i did bring my laptop so i could watch stuff and see what was going on back home and by that time i had a digital camera and i uploaded pics at the end of each day. i was happy i brought mine. i think you should bring it. and if you end up not using it oh well.
Answer 3 :
Yes, it's practical to take your laptop with you to Europe. Note that all laptops today accept any voltage (look on the power supply) so all you need is a plug adapter. A plug adapter that is also a surge protecter is better (sold at stores like BestBuy and CompUSA). Before you decide, find out if wherever you plan to stay (hotel, whatever) has Internet. If yes, absolutely take your laptop with you. If no, you can still use your laptop to connect to the Internet, but you will have to take it to a cafe (or somwhere else with Internet) to use it online. Internet cafes (with computers & printers) are much more common in Europe than in the USA so not taking your laptop will not result in a crisis.
