This is a quite interesting thread.
Here's my list. I suppose it is a bit different from a few of the others, but then I do a lot of software development.
Main system: Sun Blade 100 UltraSPARC II cpu 500MHz 2GB RAM 2*120GB disks Built-in frame buffer driving 20" trinitron CRT LaserJet 4p printer OS: Solaris 9 Applications/software used: bash textutils, vi, TeX, and all the normal UNIX stuff. JBoss Oracle 9i MySQL Apache 1.3 and Apache 2.0 Perl 5.8 gcc 2.9.5 and 3.3 Java 1.4.2 Hercules (emulates IBM S/390 mainframe for testing apps and writing PL/I.) Bochs (emulates Intel PC for running DOS and OS/2 apps that I still support) Mozilla 1.7 Opera 5 (mainly for testing) WingZ spreadsheet OpenOffice.
Hi-Fi system (in living room): iMac Graphite wired up to big Sony TV and home-brew things. 400MHz G3 512MB RAM. OSX 10.3.5 iTunes, iPhoto etc. mail.app Safari browser OSX DVD player RealPlayer Audio Hijack iPhoto Photoshop 7.0 Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional Quark xPress 6.0 Adobe Illustrator CS 11 Adobe GoLive
The home-brew things are a titchy FM transmitter so that in the house I can tune in some of the old valve radios into iTunes, and a stereo amp.
Laptop 1. IBM ThinkPad 760 128Mb RAM linux SuSE 7.3 MySQL Perl 5.8 GCC 2.9.5 Apache 1.3
Laptop 2. Compaq EVON1015 Athlon CPU. Not sure of speed; think it is 1.7ghz. 256 MB. Windows 2000 CygWin to run normal GNU tools, vi, etc. MS Visual Studio 6.0 iTunes for Windows Realplayer LoadRunner VU-Gen. (I don't use this one very much because I think Windows is slow and it doesn't work, so there's not much on there.)
Laptop 3. iBook G4 12.1" 1GHz 512MB Same software as per the Mac in the living room above Also MySQL, Aqua Data Studio, Perforce 4, xCode, X-11 Microsoft RDC Apogee)X Client VNC client (this computer is joined to me at the hip and goes everywhere with me)
There is also an old 133MHz Pentium computer which runs SuSE Linux and acts only as a NAT firewall/router to the ADSL connection.
In work they provide me with a pair of twin CPU G4 macs each with a 20" sony monitor and a 17" apple flat paned display, for coding, and a G5 mac with single display for benchtesting. Really amazing systems, those G5s :-)

Jooles - nice, very nice list of 'required equipment' At work: Hardware: AMD XP2400 cpu, 1 gig of DDR memory, 2 - 60 gig Seagate drives in a RAID0 configuration, DVD reader, CD burner, zip drive, a couple of USB hard drives, and a 21" Viewsonic monitor, Soundblaster Audigy card pushes the tunes out to a Boston Acoustics 2 speaker + subwoofer sound system. Software: Certin/TRF Estimating System for the heavy estimating. Excel spreadsheets for simple bids and things like panel schedules with load calcs, fixture takeoffs on multi-story buildings, tracking changeorders on jobs, timesheets. Scanlink for downloading and generating reports from copper/fiber testers. Word for writing proposals and the like. AutoCAD 14 and 2000i for doing design work, modifying files for shop drawings, detail drawings, and asbuilts (errrr 'record drawings') LYNX Digital Photo Management software to organize and store the several thousand photos taken on various jobsites, prebid meetings, vacations, etc. Netscape is / was my primary browser and email, but I'm really liking my test run of Mozilla Firefox, and I'm going to try the Thunderbird email program they have. Protection Software: Kapersky Anti-Virus, Agnitum Outpost Firewall (with Blocklist plugin), Agnitum Tauscan Trojan Scanner, Pest-Patrol (spyware scanner),Adaware (spyware scanner), Cookie Pal, Ad-Subtract.
