On the PC side, any old '486 laptop with 8 or 16 Mb of RAM will be able
to run most (if not all) Apple II and //GS emulators out there, at least
at original speed. '486 laptops go for a song nowadays, so they can be
the cheapest Apple II portables.

P.S.: I think some Apple //GS emulators use (require?) DirectDraw, and
older graphics chipsets may not be supported by DirectX, so that's why I
say "most" instead of "all". If you find a laptop with hardware DirectX
support, not only you will be able to run all emulators, but many of
them will run faster.

What is the cheapest laptop out there (Mac or PeeCee) that will run a IIGS
emulator well? I guess it should have a floppy drive.
