I've seen proof of concept with raspberry pi projects, but you have to use linux and wine to run EQ (and technically using that method could get the account banned). Theoretically possible at like 35 bucks.
More realistic, though, just browse craigslist, ebay, whatever for a cheap computer (refurbished ones from company selloffs of old pcs are great and pretty cheap This, for example). 100 bucks for the machine itself, maybe 30 bucks (or less, even free if you have one laying around) for an old video card (seriously, the shaman pc is using an 8800GT card).
It'd be a slightly risky, but if you even found one super duper cheap with windows XP on it, that'd still work (just stay off the actual internet with it because it's super insecure). If it were only meant as a box pc for EQ.
