Laptops as routers

Greetings again. I'm looking to buy a couple of cheap old laptops to 
be used as temporary routers. They just need to be able to handle 
PCMCIA Ethernet cards, not much more (having an Ethernet connector on 
the motherboard is fine, of course.) I don't want to run XWindows, 
and I'm sure 64 MB and a 1gig hard drive would suffice.

Are there any brands/models I should lean towards? Ones I should avoid?
