"might have the configurations of known laptops known by the software"

Given the sheer quantity of hardware thats ever existed and the workflow I don't think this is a serious possibility.

I know pretty much every piece of ham radio gear every constructed has at one point gone thru the xray for "dxpedition" people. Along with pretty much all consumer electronics. It would be a heck of a lot simpler to mod a COTS radio from Radio Shack.
