I have a 2012 MacBook Pro that I use for all of my work, and an iPad I occasionally mess with too.
I've got a pair of Sennheiser HD 600s, Yamaha HS8 monitors + sub, and an old Novation Remote SL 61-Key MIDI Controller.
Communication
One example is I use it to run a shell script to automatically pull the latest list of blog post tags from my website whenever I open Sublime Text, so that up to date tags show up as autocomplete options when creating blog posts in Markdown.
Coding & Development
For code and web work I went way down the rabbit hole with Sublime Text, which is a highly customizable text editor.
Media
Other
I use Keyboard Maestro to automate a lot of the repetitive tasks I do on my computer, and to automatically do things in tandem.
