I never really have time to use it anymore. TV hasn't been on in weeks :/
Toshiba Regza with a mix and match of surround sound stuff. I can't mount my speakers into my stone walls because I'm just renting the place, so they're all ghetto sitting on the corners of my couch lol. ASUS laptop hooked to the TV, networked with the dedicated file server you see in the pic there.

My computer's about the same way, except I already had the 5.1 in my living room, so I went with the cheaper z5200 (I think... the 2.1, not the 5.1) for my computer.
