Generally, cables modems connect to the host computer via an Ethernet
interface. As long as you have a network device of some sort (most likely
a PC Card), you should be able to use most of the cable modems that are
available.
Toshiba has a model or two that are fairly common and are used by
Time-Warner's RoadRunner service is many places. They are DOCSIS
compliant. See http://www.toshiba.com/taisnpd/ for details.
