What NIC they have does matter more than you'd think.
Granted, this test was on wireless, but swapping out my 802.11g card for an 802.11n card, with the same laptop antenna, and same 802.11g Wireless access point (so no speed boost at the source), at the same distance, doubled the speed.
Still seems way too low to be a NIC bottleneck, but could be some not so great drivers or something. Hard drive on the notebook would be much slower, but shouldn't be *that* slow by a long shot.
