> my 500Mhz laptop will be faster than the 2.5Ghz

I have to disagree. It's a physical impossibility for a 500MHz machine to run 
faster than a 2.5GHz machine. Windows doesn't use up than many resources. If 
you're planning on running it in a CLI then there's no base for comparison 
because you would have to run Windows in a CLI too in which case the 2.5GHz 
would still be faster. It seems to me that you're trying to compare a 500MHz 
CLI machine with a 2.5GHz GUI machine which isn't a really fair trial.
