A rescued (dead graphics card) "late 2009" 27" iMac (running Linux) with a rescued 24" 1900x1200 monitor which I currently use as my main workstation
A DL380G7 with 128GB of memory running all services as well as a few VMs with different OSs to run things for which there is no Linux-version, e.g. VAG ELSA (repair manual for VAG cars).
An Intel SS4200 in use as a backup server
A number of Raspberry Pi's in use for experiments and as media players
About 5 older Android phones in use as IP camera, media player etc.
Everything runs either Linux or FreeBSD, the Android phones also run Linux for the most part (the ones used as IP-camera run Cyanogenmod).
No new hardware insight, everything is either dumpster dived or repaired.
My wife has a newish Dell running Windows 10 issued by her employer, my 10yo daughter uses a school-issued HP running Windows 10 and my 17yo daughter a school-issued Chromebook.
