Everyone show us your home computing rig.  Here's what I've got going at my house.  I have two PCs connected up using Multiplicity.  One is a P4-3.4 Ghz Dell gaming setup and the other is a P4-2.8Ghz Dell black box.  Both ahve 2 gigabytes of memory on them (I do a lot of video editing and such).

And yes that is a disc brake rotor on my wall.

No. Royale WB, Orion Icons and a heavy modified Bliss wall. The strong colours look very good on the vaio screen.

Never had to replace my keyboard - I have yet to spill anything on it.

I bought my mom a Compaq about 7 years ago and went to help her with a problem a few months later at which time I discovered she thought the CD tray was a cup holder.
Only one spill, but it pooled in the hard drive. Had to pay over $300 for the replacement because of the way Compaq saved money on Bios chips.

My workstation setup (at work of course)...

Left three monitors (one cpu) are primarily graphics, running Linux...three seperate desktops, but the cursor spans all three.
Second from right (one cpu) is primarily text, also Linux
Far right is rebuilt PC (the case is tall Gateway 2000 case) running Win XP Pro, Pentium 4 1.? Mhz, 512 MB RAM, not sure about the graphics card (possibly integrated), on T1 line (unfortunately it is low priority on a line shared with the the other systems, so it feels like dial-up). Too many keyboards, too many mice (I've learned to be ambidexterous). Not much customization here, just desktop wallpapers and assorted (Linux) themes. I was lucky to be allowed to download and use Rainlendar.

The top of the desk is clear and waiting on Celtics memorabilia
