PS1, PSP, 2600, 7800, 800XL, PC, iMac, Ms Pacman arcade machine (does that count?)
C64 first and second generation,C128D, A500*2 - one with broken board, P1 133 with Win95, PS2, GBA, GBA SP*3, GB Micro, NDS Lite, GBC, PSone, Gamecube, SNES,Xbox, Xbox360, Selfmade arcade machine - System based on PC Hardware, and of course some other PC stuff like my desktop setup.
3 x PC, Laptop, Netbook, Macbook Pro, GBA SP, Xbox and about 6 PS2's.
Desktop, netbook, some ancient IBM, crappy disassembled desktop and a whole bunch of nintendo hardware (GBC, GBA, DS, DS Lite, 3DS, Wii, GC) and a TI84+. Though nothing after the IBM really counts as a computer. I think.
These days, I own:
C64 (inc. 1541, C= printer)
AmigaOne XE-G4
Atari 7800 (modified so I can download code to a RAM cart)
Atari Lynx
I used to own a lot more, but I gave them away to members of a forum that I frequent. Here are photos of me sorting out the collection to give away:
http://www.petergordon.org.uk/oldpooters/
Notes:
* Photos ending "yay" means that i fired up the system and it still worked
* Photos ending "boo" mean a system that died (usually RAM chips)
* Photos ending "dunno" mean that I didn't have the right cable or adaptor or whatever
* The "yayish" one doesn't have a disk drive in it. It was donated to the A500+.
* The "ohdear" one worked fine for a few minutes, then smoke started pouring out of the PSU. It was still working (and smoking) as I ran to yank the mains cable out of the wall :) It made the house stink.
* The broken C64 was working about 3 mins before I took the photo, and I was playing games on it, then it died!

Oh and "hello rodents" is a reference to the forum in question.
Oh, I also own a windows 7 laptop, and windows XP desktop, and an HP Touchpad.
I sold my C128D since my last post. I have two Salora Managers, two PCs and a Playstation nowadays.
The collection has grown rather dramatically lately, esp. considering how full all the closets are. Atari ST, STE, Falcon, 65XE, 130XE, 2600 Jr, Amiga 500, 2xA1200, VIC-20, 3xC64, Plus/4, Spectrum +48, 3x+2, +2A, ZX Evolution, QL, Sharp MZ-721, Shuttle PC, Macbook Pro, 15" PBook, Mini, Efika MX laptop, Trim-Slice, CPC 6128, Memotech MTX 512, SVI-728, Toshiba HX-10, Canon V-20, Philips 8020, 8245, GBA SP, GC, PSP, GP32, GP2X, Wiz, iPod Touch, PS2, DC, SGI O2. BBC B should arrive sometime soon.
On the positive side, with only a couple more I'd consider the collection complete :) One Atari XE and two Speccy +2s need to go.

Most of you don't have wives, do you? :-)
I only have my work PC at home... and a mountain bike occupying the space where other computers or systems could have eventually been but will never be... the rest of the space at home is my wife's :-)
Ah, wrong, I have an oldie fat PS2 which is just accumulating dust somewhere (probably broken by now, but hasn't been turned on for years, so I dunno)
