Buy your girlfriend a new Windoze laptop and 'borrow' it?

Yeah it is a little, but you print up all the pages that you might need and
if the pages get dirty during the job...throw them away and print new ones!
I see computers here going for $65 or less with Win2K
http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/sys/320997159.html
I would recommend a laptop so you can become more portable and expandable.
You can even purchase the ross-tech.com vag-com interface and use it with
the laptop.
