monitors
i had the same dilemma when i first got my firepod so i just bought a pair of monitors. but i still like to use my cpu speakers to see how the mix translate to other spearker systems. if you want to do this you have to go to device setup and change the driver from the presonus one to the regular soundcard that your cpu uses (mine is 'something multimedia'). the only thing that sucks is that when you do this, all of the input routings change back to inputs 1 and 2 and you have to go back and change everything if you want to record some more. . . . . but if you are done recording and just want to check out what your song sounds like using you cpu speakers before you export it, then it works great.
