Hell a P3-600 with 256mb will be good for that. I'm looking at Compaq Armada M300s on ebay. Old school P3 and have a serial port. Plus they're tiny. Downside is you need the docking station for CD/DVD usage. They go about $200. This will be %90 tuning laptop. I've got a $75 portable DVD player for DVDs.
