Depending where I'm at, I use one of three machines to develop:

Machine 1 (at work): Dual-processor Quad-core XEON E5320 1.86ghz
4GB RAM
1.5TB HD (raided for performance through 2x750gb SATA)
Nvidia Quadro FX4500
Dual monitors (one 22" wide, one 19" square)
SQL Server 2008, Photoshop CS3, full Expression 2 studio, Visual Studio 2008, Vista Ultimate 32bit SP1 (want to upgrade to 64, just takes a long time to repave my machine)

Machine 2 (laptop for work): Core2Duo T7500 2.2ghz
3GB RAM
7200rpm sata 200GB HD
GeForce 8600M GT
17" widescreen + 22" widescreen when telecommuting
Visual Studio 2008, SQL Server 2008, Photoshop Elements 3, full Expression 2 studio, Vista Ultimate 32bit SP1

Machine 3 (home pc): Core2Duo E6600 2.4ghz
4GB RAM
300GB SATA, 2x500GB SATA (none raided)
GeForce 8800GT 768MB
20" primary monitor + 22" widescreen
Visual Studio 2008, 2005, SQL Server 2008, Photoshop 7, full Expression 2 Studio, Vista Ultimate 64bit SP1

It goes without saying that my desktop at work performs the best, but honestly they are all dang fast.  I'd like to up the RAM on my home PC since I am running Vista 64... though I honestly don't need it.  Just be to make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

*EDIT*: I also extensively use VMWare to create images for several different setups such as Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 and XP.  Great for testing all sorts of browser combinations, etc.

Wow! Glad I asked the question.

First off, Mitch and Armand - you guys suck! (I'm jealous of your set-ups! )

Second, I'm surprised at the powerful processors, huge HD's, and huge displays. I didn't figure I'd need much in those areas as to my knowledge, other than huge graphics files, none of the development programs require that much. Unless these setups are just because we are major geeks and like to have high end equipment......  The RAM I can understand somewhat but even then my dedicated server running 7 or 8 low traffic full installs of DNN has only 1gb of ram.

The other surprise is Vista - didn't expect that from a development crowd. Good to know about switching between projects.

How about everyone else?  What are your specs?  Does everybody run major powerful dev machines?

I have the assortment of large drives, big monitors, etc. but that's partly because my work is not strictly developing for DNN.  I have VirtualPC/VirtualServer on all my systems and use them extensively for development work.  I'll carry a VM on a USB key between systems and fire it up for the same result on each system I develop on.
