Old IBM 32U cabinet in the unfinished basement, half a dozen older IBM x-series and NAS, Cisco 2950/3550, old terminal server, UPS (have to upgrade), bix patch panel, etc. Simple and cheap stuff I've managed to cobble together over the years. A lot mirroring the configuration (not the hardware) at work. Eventual projects include building the room around it and tying the phone into it all. It's all for fun, really.
