Default Suggestions for cheap laptop for Powervision

All the computers I have access to use Google Chrome. I need one with a Windows operating system so I can get tunes from Fuel Moto and load them into my Powervision. Can someone suggest a cheap laptop or similar device with Windows that I could get just for this purpose? Would something as cheap as this work?: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Latitu...p/373070223386

Can you borrow a friend's laptop? You are probably not going to use it once you get the map loaded. Or, just buy a cheap one from a pawn shop, or Craigslist that has Windows 8 or better on it.

That's the one I got off fleabay refurbished loaded with Windows 10 and the seller loaded firefox for me. I dont have internet service here at Fire Support Base Jaqueline. Works well as a standalone for the SEPST.
