Here's my $.02 worth of equipment:

1) Netgear RT314 el cheapo router attached to my ATT cable modem (4
ports, I'm using 3)

2) My primary machine is an HP Pavilion (HP anything except for
printers is POS, but it works) PIII/800Mz/256Meg/40Gig
HD/DVD/CD-RW/NIC set up to dual boot Win98 (used seldom) and linux
(currently I only have gentoo and ELX on board).  This system has an
HP LJ1100 printer

3) My older machine is a home brew K6/II 300Mz/128MB/pair of 20Gig
HD/CD-RW/NIC setup to dual boot Win98 (primary use) and linux
(currently gentoo and ELX on board).  As you can guess, this is the
machine my wife and daughter use.  This system has a Lexmark Z53 and a
parallel port scanner (UMAX Astra 610P)

4) Docking station, Monitor, mouse, and keyboard for my work-supplied
laptop (Compaq 800Mz/256MB/10Gig HD/DVD/NIC) that runs Win2K.  You can
grow a beard in the time it takes Win2K to complete booting! 
Fortunately, my employer provides me the ability to reach the
corporate network via cable, so it's just like working at the office
when I use it.  I get my daily does of LookOut via this box.

5) I used to have everything linked up with Samba and Windows Sharing,
but I've been too lazy to put that back together again.

That's all folks!
