I had the first generation boom box, where you could take the unit from your car to the radio. It was pretty cool in that I could use it in my office, the garage, at picnics and up at the cabin.

Now that XM broadcast over the net (http://xmro.xmradio.com/xstream/index.jsp) I use my computer in the office. Outside the house I use my ipod and a set of portable speakers(http://playlistmag.com/news/2005/06/02/im7/index.php). In the house my preference is the Polk rack unit (http://www.xmradio.com/polk/index.jsp)... it allows me to listen and record programs to CD or MiniDisc.
