Hi all, I posted above but didn't mention my computer spec. I've got  a 27" Apple 3.2QC/2x4GB//1TB/GR55M whatever that means! . I have AX7 monitors, SE2200T condenser mic for vocals and acoustic guitars, Korg Kronos keyboard, Gibson Les Paul std, Gibson SG std, custom Fender stratocaster, Fender jazz bass, Gretsch 5750, Martin acoustic, and my first Yamaha electric guitar which I still use live for special tuning for placebo songs, special k and the bitter end! Of all my guitars the Yamaha holds its tuning best and it was the cheapest!

Cheers
Jamie

Windoze 64 bit Acer lap-top running Mixcraft & Melodyne (Melodyne totally screws things up really quickly)
Focurite Scarlet 2i2 (yes they are brilliant)
Samson Meteor USB stereo condenser mic (picks up fleas farting in the next room)

Acer laptop - medium spec for about four years ago, I'd hazard.
Sonar X-1 LE
Samson USB mic
Headphones - Tesco cheapies

Headphone plugs into the mic, mic plugs into USB port and I'm ready to rock'n'roll!

And one of the following guitars:

Martin 00015m
Tanglewood TW40
Tanglewood TW60
Furch DM32
Manouche Modele Jazz

I don't think I've posted anything electric but I have a '79 strat and a couple of teles, too.

[CaliaMoko]

My stuff is all set up in the "office" (used to be the spare bedroom).

Old Acer TravelMate 4230 laptop. Not hooked up to internet and not used for anything else. Runs XP.

Shure BG 5.0 condenser mic
AKG P-220 condenser mic
PreSonus AudioBox 44 VSL mixer/amp whatever it's called--connects mics to computer
Shure SRH 440 headphones
Reaper
Audacity, sometimes
Estaban American Legacy Midnight Steel 6-string acoustic/electric guitar
Kona Signature 12-string
Roland EM-303 "Intelligent Synthesizer" keyboard

I also have a Yamaha DGX-505 keyboard, but it isn't in the "office". It's out in plain sight to tease the grandkids into saying things like, "Oh, can I play on that???"

I think that's it.

[PaulAds]

Great reading...thanks to everyone for posting your setups!

Very impressive what you all manage to create without studios full of fancy stuff

[Viscount Cramer & His Orchestra]

Hey I notice I haven't contributed to this!

I use the home desktop PC which is a bog-standard thing about 2 years old.

I started with Podium Free and still use it. It has a nice, cool brushed-metal look interface which is essential of course. It has an excellent midi editor and wave editor both of which I use a lot with my fake instruments and loops. No bundled plug-ins to speak of so whatever is free! For free software it's bloody good.

Focusrite Scarlett Solo for vocals with Sennheiser 815 S-X mic (on offer when I bought the Solo)

Yamaha LL11-E Acoustic which I bought 15 years ago when I had some money.

A couple of Hohner Special 20s and a Lee Oskar.

The 1930s Cramer upright for messing about on.

A pouch of Drum tobacco, lots of coffee and the occasional glass of red.

[PaulAds]

 Excellent choice of baccy, there chickenfeet

 Reasonably priced, tasty and dependable.  Low latency too.

 I loved benson & hedges rolled gold...remember that ?

 Anyway, now that you're chickenfeet Cramer, shouldn't you be smoking horseshit and bus tickets?

[Viscount Cramer & His Orchestra]

Yeah you're right....I haven't quite firmed-up my new image yet.

[MartynRich]

Use Logic Express, with a Zoom MRS8 and Tube Ultragain. Got a condenser mic and midi keyboard. Guitar-wise, I have Washburn and Ibanez electrics, a Yamaha acoustic, a Spanish classical guitar and a crappy bass made by ALM. Sometimes the guitars are powered by a Line 6 amp. They are all in my favourite room in the world.
