For what it is worth, I've checked the Levino (ThinkPad) T41 and T43's here at
work with the sound check program and they fly.
I also had the same experience with the sound board program on the brands below
(I took in a USB disk with it on).

with a CD in hand that had the sound board check program. I was able to find a
salesman that didn't have much to do so we went around to a few of the laptops
to see if they would support Writelog.
I tested Toshiba's, Gateways and HP's and unfortunately none of them passed the
soundboard check, ie, it would not pass the mic audio through to the speaker
output. I've also tested a few of the Dells since thats we have here in our
office, and again, the Dells did not pass.
So I purchased a Soundblaster pcmcia card, the Audigy2ZS card. I was told I
could bring it back if the product did not support my application.
To make a long story short, it did not pass the soundboard check but I tried it
with Writelog anyways. I went to tools and checked echo microphone. The card
worked like a champ.
Since the the card didn't pass the sound board check I'm starting to wonder if
the other laptops would work anyways, but without having Writelog installed,
I'll never know unless I purchase one.
I may just buy one of the laptops I liked and try it, if it doesn't support
Writelog I can always insert the pcmcia card, if it works I can return the
pcmcia card.
