Just how tech are you!?

Ok guys, just how "tech" are you really? We all talk about computers, electronics and tech, but what do you actually own! Who is the Uber Geek!?

Dang it. Have to rise to the challenge:

1. 7 Server class machines all functioning and in use. (all machines running Red Hat 7.3 and One is a full blown Oracle Server).
2. Main Dev Machine is an Athlon 2200 currently sporting a Matrox Parhelia Video Card, 2 GB Ram, 100GB WD Drive Mirrored, 3 Monitors (thanks to Parhelia) and Dolby 5.1 surround for games (no surround for dvd yet)
2. Fiberoptic Network around home office
3. 802.11b for rest of house and yard.
4. Gamecube/N64/3 GBA's -> found code to make GBA into a working webserver
5. Panasonic Progressive Scan DVD
6. Two very ordinary TV's.
7. Two Lego Mindstorm Robots that run around living room and office and pick up trash off floor.

4 computers in my room
Best computer has AXP 1800+, GeForce4 Ti4200, 512MB DDR, 19" Sony Trinitron G400 (dual input), 120GB Western digital HD, DVD-ROM, CD-RW, SB Audigy, 4.1 surround sound.
All the computers in my house are interconnected by 100Mbit ethernet, wired myself, and have DSL.
27in RCA TV with Guide+Gold (which kicks ass when it dosent lose your channel settings)
Sony Clie PEG-T415 (To be replaced by Danger Hiptop/T-Mobile Sidekick as soon as it's released)
Tripp Lite OmniSmart 725 UPS

I think I'm doing pretty well for a 16 year old with no job.
