Two Mac laptops for self and spouse, two Mac desktops for same, one  
Mac server running back-up, file services, mail, and DNS. One PC  
dedicated to HIPPA compliant vpn connection to Med center on-line  
apps ( for hard-working spouse). Two PCs for games etc when kids are  
in town. Sun boxen to keep up Solaris skills just in case!

One laser printer for cheap bulk printing and business  
correspondence, one wide carriage Epson for photography hobby. One  
Brother AIO for fax and business in my wife's home office.

Seems perfectly reasonable to me. ; > )
