"Does any one know of any good ideas to achieve this at a decent price?"
I am afraid it is called a deasktop. FS2004 needs a substantial machine to get the best from it and you are obviously a serious sim freak. I honestly don't think you will get a "cooking" laptop to do it, unless the sliders are all down. I honestly would be surprised if you can get a positive experience from a lappy, unless it is extremely well specced and therefore pricey as well.
By the way, FS X is on the way later this year and that will probably make a lot of current desktops sweat.
