 - Very CumbersomeI was hoping to get a sound that was a bit better on my laptop to listen to itunes. I plugged it in the the speaker was so top heavy it kept pulling out of the usb. After proping it up I started to play my itunes and the sound didn't come through. I checked all my settings and it wouldn't work. I have since returned the item. I will say that the "ding" from my computer was pretty clear... Rating:  - OSX 10.5.2 Leopard and JLAB - great!I bought this unit despite some negative reviews, and.. I'm impressed! It's about 5x as loud as the internal speakers on the macbook (white). there were some audio/video sync issues with pre OSX 10.5.2 but its working great now! there was also some comments about 'preferred usb port' on the macbook - but after the OSX update both ports work perfectly. its a small package, so don't expect the fidelity to be miraculous, but if you're traveling and watching movies in itunes, you won't have to strain to hear! --Chas. Rating:  - Good StuffThis product performed well out of the box. It's best to plug into your laptop before you turn it on. This will enable you to utilize your volume controls for your laptop. I tried plugging it in after my laptop was already turned on and this prevented me from using my volume controls. Rebooted...no problem. You get great sound from a small package. Rating:  - Great until they broke!I loved these little speakers. They're extremely easy & portable. I had been using them for about one year, up until yesterday when the USB connecter separated itself from the speakers. I guess the flexible wire was just a little too flexible and got worn out. Be careful! Rating: - Just what I neededThese are just what I needed for my Thinkpad x60s. Now I can finally hear the movies and TV shows I download and watch with iTunes on my laptop while traveling! I recommend this item for anyone who needs a simple and inexpensive way to increase laptop sound when watching downloaded video.
