That's close to the computer I used to have for my Edit/EFILive. Anything over a pentium 1 with atleast 350mhz, as a minimum. And yes, make sure it has a serial port.

My old laptop was a Pentium III w/550mhz, IBM Thinkpad. Happy Motoring!

either a good battery (Best choice) and/or a cig lighter charger.

old laptops might have a 10 minute battery life which would be fine a short stop, but not very fun elsewise.

Go down to the ghetto and shop the homeboy shopping network, you'll probably get a nice one cheap
