Would help if you specified what connections you have on your laptop.

an amp will have standard RCA phono sockets for left & right channels, a laptop wil have, at teh very least, a headphone socket "out". Get a cable from Peats or Maplins which has 2 phono at one end and mini-jack on the other end.

The Creative X-Mod http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=209&subcategory=668&product=15913 is a really clever little gizmo that "upscales" MP3s into something actually worth playing through an amp.
