Default Laptop to use with HP Tuners for my LS1?

Ok so I am looking to order HP Tuners here pretty soon to do some tuning on my 98 TransAm. I know that you need a laptop....will any laptop work or does it have to be specific for the tuning software?

I have a new dell....just wondering if it would work. Thanks

That will work, I think that HP Tuners website has the system requirements on their website, but I think you'll be fine with what you have.

400mhz, win 98SE, 128mb ram are the minimum requirements...personally I have a 1.4ghz celeron, winxp, 1gb ram & it works flawlessly & only cost me $549 new 6 months ago.
