I had 6 from the list, going back to my very first one - the Commodore 64 (1982) hooked up to my TV for a monitor. I had a good time with my son playing pac man! No wonder I feel old already....

Commodore 64 (1982)
IBM PC XT 5160 (1983)
Compaq Portable (1983) I demoed this at the Board of Directors Mtg and I still remember telling them that "someday" almost all Accounting professionals would own a smaller portable PC and the Chairman of the Board said "yea right...."
IBM PS/2 (1987)
IBM Thinkpad 701C (1995)
Powerbook G4 17 inch (2003)
Soon to order: 13 inch Macbook and a Dell 24" LCD monitor
