PC recomendation for cd ripping

I am planning on using JRiver media center to rip my cd collection using an Acer Lap top. Does the laptop impact sound quality when ripping cds to FLAC files?

My PC is about 4 yrs old. I maybe over thinking this but does the cd/dvd drive of the PC effect the quality (sound) of the FLAC file created when ripping cd's?

If so, what PC based laptop under %500 would be recommended?

The best ripper of all is dbPowerAmp, and it is priced very low. It also uses the multiple cores of your processor to speed things up.

As for ripping to FLAC, use Level 5 or 6. This will net you files about 60% the size of the original with full fidelity...

Looks like Tune_Man gave you good info, go with that...
