But if you have a box between the internet and your LAN and there is only internet traffic (typical a linux firewall :), you can shape on both NIC's. So the incoming traffic of the internet NIC can be shaped as outgoing bandwidth on the LAN- NIC.

You can give the laptop 80% of the bandwidth and the remaining 20% to the other computers in the network. When you are not downloading, the rest gets 100% (and vice versa). But as soon you start a download, you will get 80% of the bandwidth.
