Not really, if we're talking about an attacker's machine here. If you've got 512MB RAM, you'll be comfy with it. It's Nessus which is a memory hog. Get a USB flash drive, check if your laptop with WLAN can boot from a USB drive... if yes, then you can start of with BackTrack on a USB stick: http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack_download.html You can build a VMware image for a Solaris x86 or an older Linux box, and load it up with all the stuff you can put in it, using a regular PC. Then. we'll just transfer that to the quad-core CPU we'll make ready.
