They are generally smaller and have less horsepower. For reading comics and stuff, it would be fine hardware wise with the screen size maybe being an issue (I think the bigger ones are 10"). If I were in your situation, I'd probably get a netbook.

VMWare Server is also free where Workstation is not, but I still don't see how that would be a solution for what you want.



edit: I work in IT too and also drive a Ford Focus. It's gets good mileage and I hate big cars and not really caring about cars otherwise.
