Same for me basically, except 5.1 (headphones sometimes) and two other computers at the house when I'm at home.

I would really love to trade my 4.1 setup for a nicer 2.1 setup. I only bought the 4.1 to play Max Payne (remember that damn baby level????)

Anyways, I voted LCD even though I don't have it yet. I just ordered one today. Running XP, browsing with FF

audio: 5.1, but I'm thinking of investing in a high quality 2.1 set instead. I very rarely use my computer for anything that could truly utilize surround sound (I'd port the 5.1 speakers over to my television, where surround sound would actually be useful).

monitors: 1.5? ;) I have a 19" lcd and a 15" tv both hooked up to my computer

total computers: technically 5... only 3 are in regular use, though. my desktop, my roommate's desktop, and my laptop. we both have archaic laptops floating around that don't get much use, though.

os: XP Pro on both desktops, and XP Home on my laptop. my old laptop has 98 on it, and my roommate's old laptop is running slackware, It think.
