Hi
I#m looking for a good audio laptop.
Good means no capture nor playback noise and low latency under load.
I've got a 1990ish guitar amp with effect loop plugs here,
which I'd like to hook up to a linuxed laptop to apply effects.
I want to use the laptop's built in soundcard.
Candidates?
Thanks
Karsten

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.

Assuming you want to use the laptop's internal sound card for convenience in
carrying rather than as a technical challenge, you could order any laptop, fix
problems like singing capacitors yourself :), and use an Echo Indigo PCMCIA
card. That would give you 24/96 conversion quality with at at least decent
converters, but you would still only have on device to lug around.
