Can't Slimserver just be configured to stream to the Squeezebox
whatever is being delivered to the soundcard?

That would be pretty cool: http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=643. I added my vote.

All I'm really interested in is playback of these files.  I intend on
using the laptop and remote desktop to control the playlists and song
selection.

No joke: you're really, really a lot better off just burning to CD and ripping back to MP3 (a one-time hassle). Or use Hymn.
What does Slimserver need in order to work with Icecast?

You just paste the URL of the Icecast stream into the "Tune In" box under "Internet Radio" in the web interface. Setting up an Icecast server can be a pain, if converting your DRMed tracks to MP3 looks like trouble, you really don't want to know how complex this path is.
