Few guitars, few keyboards, few mics, 2 good drumsets (well, I combined them into one for a while, that was some sweet playing!), homemade electronic drums everywhere, couple mixers (one doesn't work), cords everywhere. If only I could play them all at once I'd be a one-man band....
edit:  ...had to!

I used to run a server for "random" tasks (I VPN into my family's main server which is located at my parents house...for file storage and e-mail server).....but ever since I moved where power is no longer part of the rent, I've become mega-cheap, and it has never been powered up since I moved.  It costs like $5-6 a month in power just to run an average PC with a few hard drives 24/7.  Nearly $70 a year!
