Since you ask: my workstation runs Gentoo. My old workstation sometimes 
does; at other times it's experimenting with other distributions.

I have a midget server on the LAN (Atom N270) which runs Gentoo, but it's 
too underpowered to do all the compiling itself, so it NFS-exports its 
packages directory to my workstation, where I have a 32-bit chroot set up as 
an image of the Atom. Emerging is done here, making the packages available 
for installation on the Atom. This is a cumbersome operation though.

The Atom serves web, time, squid proxy, dns, cups and mysql to the LAN. It 
runs http-replicator and rsyncd to keep a local portage tree for the other 
boxes. I'd like it to serve mail too, but I've never managed to set that up.

My laptop runs Gentoo, Fedora or WinXP.
