I did not make it that far, but then I had a 4 year old (mine), a 5 year old, a 7 year old and some older ones running around and playing . The music samples also did not blend it well with my nieces loud leap frog game. We are babysitting my sister's little ones.

I was -18... I would think thats pretty good for listening on a laptop that only has 1 speaker. IBM thinkpads dont exactly have the best speakers
