Default Computer speakers

I know this opens up the gates of Hell, but...

My partner needs a pair of computer speakers to plug into her laptop. Requirements:

1. Portable, powered.
2. Reasonably affordable.
3. Not *too* horrible sounding. I know computer speakers, for the most part, stink; she needs something that doesn't stink as badly as most.

Any recommendations? If it was me, I'd choose a good pair of powered monitors, but that violates criteria 1 and 2. We're not talking an audio professional here, but someone who needs the equivalent of a better-quality boombox.

Peace,
Paul


These might do it: Alesis M1 Active 320 USB

They're $100/pr. They sound decent to me though I only
listened in a noisy store environment. They do some other
tricks, too.
