Originally when I wanted to do this I
a) neeeded furniture
b) had more free time

Now I’d rather spend my hard earned cash on something simple from Ikea and spend my time at Borders reading ;)

I helped move my grad program from teaching the future tech leaders how to make sites in PHP + MySQL to ruby on rails. Even though I’m just a masters student like my students I teach SI539: Design of Complex Websites.
It’s been a smashing success. Wherever I move I hope to teach this course at a college or University nearby!
I picked up an old Dell from work (smallish case, decently quiet). It has:
*a 933Mhz Pentium III
*384 MB RAM
*using an old keyboard and mouse
*old Dell monitor (15” for set up)
*120 GB hard drive (had it lying around… probably $40 – $60 these days)
*Haupaggue PVR-350 (just under $200 with shipping).
The total cost to me has been about $200 so far (not including my time :p)
