CONSIDERING PURCHASING TOSHIBA SATELLITE L305-S5921 FOR KJ HOSTING,
CURENTLY USING DISCS. TOSHIBA HAS 2GB MEMORY,160 HARD DRIVE, 429$ AT OFFICE DEPOT. WILL THIS BE SUFFICIENT? WILL BE USING EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE . ALSO LAPTOP ONLY HAS RGB VIDEO OUT. WILL THAT BE AN ISSUE?
ANY ADVICE WILL BE APPRECIATED.

First of all, please stop typing in ALL CAPS.

The laptop you mention should be plenty sufficient. I use a Satellite with similar specs and it does fine. By RGB out, I assume you mean VGA (D-Sub 15)? You can use that if your second display is a computer monitor or if you buy a device to convert the VGA signal to RCA/S-Video or whatever you need. For my Satellite I had to buy one of these:

I have enough room for all of my DJ music on my laptop hard drive, so when I don't need karaoke or music videos or any of that fluff, I do not get my external hard drive out. It seems like I buy at least a few hundred megs of new MP3 music every month. My drive will be full before summer is over and I will have to upgrade, delete some things, or use the hard when I am just DJing.

Costco is selling a HP with HD wide-screen, 4gb of ram and a 500gb HD & Blue Ray for under a grand with the fastest processor. Way bigger hard drive.
