looking for a portable laptop for DOS games

Hi everyone,

I've been searching everywhere but there is not enough demand that my questions are easily answerable with a google search.

I am currently looking for a netbook or notebook that is preferably 13.3" and UNDER $300 that can run DOSbox with most <2000 games. I will be traveling a bit in March and throughout the summer and waiting around in airports or long flights are a drag. Mobile games just don't entertain me enough.

I have been searching thinkpads, dells, acers, everything. But I have no source to go to that compares what processors are the best for DOSbox. RAM and hardrive space isn't much of a priority for me.

If anybody has a better source I can go to or knows from hands on experience PLEASE let me know. I will keep this tab open for about a week before I purchase something as I have a flight in about three weeks.

Thanks

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

As far as I know DOSbox isn't that hardware demanding for todays standards.

Even my measly nine and a half year old Macbook (Core 2 Duo T8300) can run DOSbox without any problems.

Even my XP Retro Pentium M Singlecore laptop with 1,7GHz is fast enough for DOS box and GUI.
