I’ve been using these for about a year now as speakers for my iPod Mini. I was painting a mural for a few months and recently I’ve been painting the interior walls of a house I’ll be renting. These old PC speakers beat the holy hell out of dragging CDs around or buying one of those overpriced iPod jukeboxes. I wouldn’t want to leave one of those in my car trunk through the winter or get paint on them. I don’t know about the quality of the sound (they are a bit ‘tinny’), but they sure do work in a pinch. It’s so simple of a concept that I won’t go into details. The picture says a thousand words. 😀
