micro monitor recommendations?

Is anyone using "micro" monitors like the little Edirols or Rolands and the like?
I have long periods at work where I just sit and monitor the TV station and am planning on setting up a DAW at my desk just to do demos of songs I have been writing. Not planning on cutting the next DSOTM, just some basic demo work.

I need to keep everything small and compact to keep the boss happy,so I need something that wouldn't be too much bigger than a set of pc speakers.
I'm not expecting they would sound like a full blown set of nearfields, just better than average pc speakers.

Thanks

You could hook it up to a couple Tivoli speakers. Someone on the board turned me on to these, and I've already bought two of them and gave them out for Christmas presents.

Thanks!

I'll have to check them out, they look like they would be just right. And I get a radio too!

The Seifer is infamous around these parts
Everyone will tell you that the Edirol micro monitors suck, and they're right to a certain extent, but they're really not that bad. I've had a pair for a while now and I've pretty much learned to mix with them. They're not as good as "real" monitors, but they are waaaaaay better than any PC speakers out there.
