Yes, I'm not joking xD. It varies around a 30% depending in which part of spain you live, (for example, Madrid, which is the capital, has better wages, but live is more expensive there anyway).

As a example, you can see some job offers here. Both are from Asturias, which is where I live:

- .net c# developer, they ask for a person with a degree in computer science, and 1 year experience:

http://asturias.oferta.infojobs.net/analista-programador-c/of-i521126152554979102525376455201

15.000 ? - 21.000 ? Brute/year, which is around 1000-1350 net ?/month.

- VB6 and .net developer, degree required:

http://asturias.oferta.infojobs.net/programador-desarrollo-visual-basic-6.0-.net/of-i310585259020019134431119441625

1200 brute euro/month, which is around 1000 net euro/month.

Java sitiation is very similar. Searching very fast, I only found those two in which the stated the salary, but is the common thing for java/.net developers here... I know, I know... it's ridiculous xd.
