Until recently, I worked on a 2xQuad core Mac Pro running a pair of 20" monitors.
These days I can't rely on the generosity of an employer, however, so I've stripped it back to a highly-portable setup: a 13" MacBook Pro.
The one constant is my trusty old 12" G4 Powerbook that has been repurposed to take care of lots of networking stuff.
