Sometime Back: I got into my mad scientest mood a couple of weeks ago and went delving into a box of stuff I keep for spare parts. I came out with an old battery powered radio, a pair of head phones and an old nokia charger. Before moving the computer back to my room this radio used to play through the line in jack of the computer, I decided to see if it would still l work. Turns out the radio had some burnt out resistors, so I replaced those, cut the jack off of the charger and used that as a power supply. The I snipped off the speakers of the head phone and use the wire and to interface betwween the line in port of the computer and the speaker leads of the radio. It worked! I turned it on and tuned in to some cricket, Go West Indies!!
