Sorry Linda. I didn't feel like searching for the description list earlier today (took me several minutes to find it a little bit ago)... I edited my posts to add some information.

I didn't get speakers with my new computer, because I figured the ones I had would work. I ended up not having any for just over four months. In April I got Creative speakers.
