I have an i5 laptop here at work with a 19 docked monitor (so I run dual screens with the built in 15"), but at home I run a triple monitor (3 x 27") setup that I love. I'm thinking about adding one of my old 19" (square) flat panels that I've had for about 7 years as a 4th monitor just to have GPU-Z, HWMonitor and the like up all the time, but I haven't decided if I am really going to do that or not.
Also, I'd love if I could figure out how to build a Hackintosh (I love Apple's OS, but I refuse to use a store bought computer at home). But I've never really had the time to look into it.

I have a nice little 19" display that I had considered putting where the printer is for iTunes and mail but then I need to re think the desk which I should anyway I guess..
I have a nice little i3 box at work and it does what it does just fine, but it still amazes my boss when I get the opportunity to work from home how much more productive I am. Familiarity with an OS goes much further than HW my quad is classic at this point but for me more efficient.
I sold the hack for two reasons, one I had a buddy who needed a computer really badly, two computer like bikes for me are emotional and I just couldn't develop an attachment to it even though I'd built it...
I'm doing more and more photo and print stuff from here. I work for DOD and because of the budget stuff the graphics and public affairs types are getting thing so I help out when I can. Print is a bit tough since the panels are TN and won't hold a calibration longer than 3 or so weeks but I bought them with movies in mind not layouts.
I'm a Mac guy and an old mac guy at that I most likely always will be so...
***edit***That would be what I would use if gamed..nice thine bezeled LG's as a matter of fact. If you want some hackintosh help let me know..I'll help you out as much as I can at this distance.
I had to give up my MacBook Pro my wife says "the colors on your computer are better than mine" and being that I'm fond of my wife she goth the MBP and I took the MacBook. My daughter has been eyeing the MacBook so I have a feeling it'll disappear here in a bit..Thats OK though I have my trusty 12" PowerBook.
