    you could prolly get a pcmcia/expresscard soundcard.. or a usb one.. then again you can always run it just in stereo format - it's stupid actually how they put hda into stereo laptops, and then don't provide any form of hda out. :/ heh usb-out maybe? :p let us know how/if you fix it, would be actually interesting :)
