mmm....ok.
so, this automatically leads to this very famous question here:

which external card will be compatible (means working out of box) with the

type of Lenovo laptop I want to buy. (it's not thinkpad series. it's G

series G580, G780...etc.)

and as I'll already spend 700-900 euros on new lap top, the cheapest option

will be better.
I need one mic input and a stereo output. (although more outputs can be

always welcome, if it doesn't double up the price)

I don't need super hyper fantastic quality. just 'normal'.

cheap and work out of box with the most recent laptop + ubuntu set up would

be more important than quality...

but one good bonus will be headphone amp + on board headphone volume

control. I spend a lot of time with my Beyerdynamic DT-770.
and the reason why I insist on Lenovo models is simply I never had any

other brand...before my first PC laptop, I was brainwashed by mac. so I

have no idea about general PC stuff.

so plz don't hesitate if you can recommend a decent laptop from other brand=

.
thanks!

You'll definitely want an external audio interface, an inexpensiv=

e one

should be fine, but you can ramp up as to your needs. =A0The audio

chips used in the Thinkpads have always been pretty low quality, I think

you'll be pleasantly surprised at how much better the sound is with an<=
