So what's in NANOGers home networks/compute centers? :)

Surprisingly minimalistic - a Linksys cablemodem and a Belkin Play
wireless
router, both from Best Buy, a Dell Latitude laptop from work, and a PS/3.

(I used to have more gear, but it came down to floor space for compute
gear I
didn't use versus guitar gear I *do* use.. ;)


I'm on a similar page with Valdis, cable modem and a couple wireless
routers (11n with USB drive for media, b/g downstairs for kids Xbox).  The
serious toys are at the office :)  And no guitar gear, but keyboards and
home theater gear have priority.  Used to run a Nepenthes honeypot but have
retired it as very little malware is network-driven these days and the
returns were minimal.

Also have a small museum in the back room, with an IBM 2311 disk drive
carcass (glass door intact), a 360/65 front panel, and an HP9000 D-class
(still boots when I can afford the power/noise/nostalgia).
