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?

Don't, that simple. Use the time to listen to music. Among the many cd players I have used, I've found that a Sony CDP-CX355 is a better alternative to ripping. I have two, so I can load 600 cd's and just enjoy the music. One of the units has been in continuous hourly use for 18,000 hours, still going strong. Enjoy the music.
