computer audio speakers

Hi, I have a need for a set of audio speakers that I can run from my Powerbook. This will be a one off use, and so, rather than paying for a new set of speakers, which may just gather dust, I am posting this message. Does anyone have a set of speakers which I could use, which they are not u
