Sam,

NO, there is not enough power coming out of the computer to power 
speakers. In fact you could damage the computer by connecting to the 
stereo jack.

You can buy speakers with a built-in amplifier, designed to mate with 
the stereo jack, for not too much. I have a pair for my iBook that 
cost $6 new. And I have a three speaker system on my 8100 that cost 
$20 new.

Or you can just use a stereo amp and your old speakers. Cabling could 
get to be a pain here.
