In my apartment I have a similar iMac plus a year-old MacBook Pro laptop, again running Snow Leopard, plus a $100 printer and RoadRunner cable modem access, which is fine.
Communication
I write in TextEdit or WordPress (zeldman.com is a WordPress blog).
I use Flickr Uploadr to upload photos to my Flickr account and Twitter to microblog.
Address Book and Calendar with Mobile Me - syncs my iPhone to my Macs from the cloud.
Productivity
We keep track of everything with 37signals's Basecamp.
Coding & Development
For FTP I use Fetch (and I was thrilled that Happy Cog got the opportunity to redesign the Fetch website).
Design
Storage
Dropbox -- a shared folder between all my Macs.
Other
Snapz Pro X - the ultimate screen shot tool.
CoverScout - finds missing artwork when I create MP3 or AC3 versions of old LPs and CDs.
