What is the present procedure to load LAS files in QGIS 2.0.1?
After some searching I found a paper outlining the procedure; however, it was for 1.8.something, and related posts here are all rather dated.

LAS files are very specialised and really need fancy software to do stuff with them. You can use LASTools in QGIS with the extension for free and make surface DEMs etc. Then work with the resulting raster data as normal... My question would be what do you want to do with the data?– Alex LeithCommented Oct 7, 2013 at 6:25
