I guess "boombox" is misleading ... that's their name for the product, but it's more of a small desktop radio-type thing. I just measured mine and it comes in at about 18" wide by 7" high. As for hooking it into your soundcard, I don't believe the model I have can do that ... but newer models might. There is a connector for headphones on the front. However, I'd put the speakers on this thing up against my home theater system any day, they're that good. >>I'm not familiar with XM online, but I'm assuming it's similar to other >>online music services Yes, similar in the sense that it's streaming audio through your computer. Every XM subscriber gets automatic access to *almost* all the XM channels (and some that you won't hear anywhere BUT online) via their Web site. If you have system resource issues now, that will be a concern here as well ... I use it as opposed to other online music services just because I'm an XM addict! Now I'm getting the itch to see what other devices are available ... like I said it's been a year or so (or more maybe) since I bought these and I'm sure there's something better out there by now.
