[RTTY] A new computer

I need advice.
  I am occasionally minimally active on RTTY, mainly
because the shack computer is a 486 25 mhz. I have a
BayPac modem using HammCom shareware, and the
limitations to contesting are obvious! (Our family's
nice computer is in my wife's office). For business
reasons I think I will be buying a laptop soon. If
I want to use this in the shack for RTTY what do I
need to think about? All I need is a soundcard and
Writelog? Are laptops generally RF proof? I am an
appliance operator and an appliance computer user.

Thanks, Bill WB0O in North Dakota
