It is my experience that if you have a slow computer, the longer range ship the better... I actually run a PIII 933 with 1/2 gig of ram and a MX440 vid card. While not pretty it does work... the scary part of this though, i actually run chars on the same system. Anybody else out there a pilot with slow a$$ computer? If so, what do you fly. Me... It's a kessie or a caracal.

I was under the impression that the current eve client draws all polygons in a ship regardless of range.

I thought so to however when I was approaching a gate someday I saw a npc ship disappear as I zoomed out and not in such a way that it might have been drawn just really really small.

One thing good about being far of with a crap comp is that the ships aren't moving so fast on the screen. Me for instance, I never use frigs in fleet battles (20+ ships) simply because the lag makes it impossible for me to target stuff when going so fast (unless I use the scanner). That'll change once I get a faster pc.
If you're looking for ships with above average locking range, check out the caldari ones. You should probably be in one of those anyway since they pwn
edit:
And you're right, distance does ease things up a bit. Zooming out to maximum range with your camera in a battle makes things way smoother.

For a crap comp you want to tank as much as possible. EW and pure offense doesn't work well on a slow computer becuase you might end up dead before you get to activate your modules. But you can turn on hardeners before you warp into combat, so that helps.
