Advanced Server on low end lap top

["Cannon, Andrew" <Andrew Cannon amecnnc com>]

Hi all,

I'm (probably) going to be taking the RHCT course in June (depending upon
whether the 'bean-counters' approve it) but I don't have a spare computer
available for me to 'play' with the system.  I was thinking of getting a
cheap laptop and dual booting it with RHAS and XP (so my wife can use it
when I've finished).  What issues may I face getting AS to work on the
laptop (probably an Acer 3003LC or LM, going for about £400 inc VAT in the
UK)?  I know I'll need to add more memory to the lappy, but are there any
other issues?

Should I try and get an old system off work (6-800MHz PIII or Celeron) or go
with the plan of buying the cheapo laptop?

TIA

Andy
