The recording engeneer of the berlin band called metaphon, uses a
Lenovo-Thinkpad plus RME-Hammerfall cardbus-interface.

That is exactly what he does, yet with Planet CCRMA.

Me myself can only warn you, to be very carefull with Models, that have
no real BIOS. I have got a Toshiba Tecra, that sets literally all
peripherals (cardreader, antenna, usb etc) on the same IRQ with the
soundchip and i cannot change this via BIOS...
