I have a 3 year old IBM with Fruitloops studio producer (flstudio.com) 
running on it.
Takes a lot to bring it down... And 99% it's less than 10% CPU load...

Haven't hooked up any midi instruments on it but it should be no prob.
Naturally, the sound cards in portables are not as good as PCI cards...
For latency...

For the playing side, there's absolutely no worry.
