Whos done it, going to be upgrading a video card in a inspiron 8600/8500 series laptop, though I might as well upgrade the speakers too if I can.

Thanks,

It falls into one of those "What's the point?" kind of things...you're never going to get any kind of stereo image from internal speakers, or have the dynamic range to do anything...

If you want hi-fi out of your laptop, I'd go with an external sound card running into an integrated amp and then full-size speakers. That way, at least when you're at home you can enjoy a real soundstage...
