If tuning is all you're using it for, you can probably uninstall almost all other software from the compaq and just upgrade it to windows 7 OS a lot cheaper than a new platform? Just a thought?
Probably not. As I understand the existing Win 2000 machine doesn't have all the hardware he wants. And even if he can install a new OS for free (that is if he or a friend has those skills) and get all the drivers working it wouldn't be too much more money to just buy an inexpensive new notebook or laptop. Plus the battery on that Win 2000 machine just has to be near the end of its life!
