not sure, if you confuse something:
gtk!=tk
gtk is a c based toolkit used by gnome and gimp, tk ist a gui toolkit on  
top of tcl.

i think you are far better of with a pc with about 1.5 ghz and a bigger  
harddisk.
developing requires a lot of additional packages which take up a lot of  
space -- and a fast cpu is a real blessing when compiling often. besides,  
i don't think the price will differ much ...
