For the past few months I've been living with my "computer" speakers for mixing. Today I went out and got myself a pair of M-Audio Studiophile SP-5B active monitors. I know these are far from the best thing out there, but I think they sound great.
I've been listening to the mixes I've done over the past few months and found all sorts of things (good and bad) that I didn't know about before. There are subtle flaws and cool textures that I couldn't see before. If you think you're doing fine with your "multimedia" speakers then do yourself a favor and check out some real monitors. You'll thank yourself!
