1) A macbook pro-2017.
GOTO machine for day to day browsing at home/working from home/coding side projects/managing my aws account. I've never connected it to an external display, only the TV I have for the occasional movie or so.

2) A win10 battlestation.
This one is rather powerful, mostly used for gaming. Connected to a couple of 23" displays. Albeit my colleagues tell me that I've not been on steam for 200+ days. So yeah. Not using it too much nowadays.

3) A dell xps 15 - maybe 2009. Considered potato by myself.
Currently running centos on it, as my main jenkins instance. It powers all the builds for my blog and anything related. It also has grafana/mysql/couple of services running on it. If you're interested, I've got a post about the setup on my blog.

4) A raspberry pi 3.
It used to be my jenkins server. At this exact moment, it's guarding me from the heat wave as I'm laying in bed, and it's powering a USB fan. Not much, but any bit helps. And all the proper ones were out of stock when I went to the shop. Looking forward to putting it to proper use.

5) A lenovo x1 carbon.
Work laptop. occasionally bring it home as well. It's running ubuntu, connected to one 23" display. It's the machine I've only recently got to try and I must say - the weight of the thing is remarkable. I'd really consider buying it over the macbook pro. Super duper happy with it. Battery lasts forever as well.
