Just in case they are being considered, laptops are a bad idea. One reason is that they often have different performance characteristics to deskop machines. The second reason is that some laptops do not have hardware performance counters that their desktop siblings do have. This makes it hard to get accurate timings. I'm personally aiming to support machines of 500MHz or more with FLINT. But I wouldn't be disappointed if all the machines were very recent and at the high end of the performance curve.
