I don't have any specifics, but I'd look at Toshiba and Sony. My church 
uses a couple of Sony laptops for multimedia during services, and their 
sound quality seems very clean, even when run through the big sound 
system we use.

My Toshiba seems fine, too, but I've only run it into a small 50-watt 
RMS home stereo amp, so might not be hearing everything that comes out.
