Get a low end Dell Laptop, then with the money saved, put together a Screaming desktop. I priced one up for the PARFessor on the Monitor thread for $1150. The Dell version was $2650. Add a $1K laptop.

Or go with a lower end machine: I just bought an ACER 17" HD, Dual Core Laptop for my Brother-in-law for $505. The Laptop keyboard even had a number pad!
