Re: Mac guy needs PC help
Pretty much any new modern laptop will suffice for those needs. Current processor speeds are waaaay ahead of software these days. I'd get a min of 512KB of memory though.
There are free solutions out there for Anti-virus (AVG, Avast). Microsoft's Anti-Spyware (free) isn't half bad. And the built-in Windows XP firewall is good enough.
Common sense will prevent well over 50% of virus/spyware attacks.
