My personal system specifications:

My 'constantly running' system consists of three machines connected by a simple STinG LAN. The specifications of these machines are as follows, given in the order in which I acquired them.
Due to voltage spikes killing some of my monitors, the setup described is not an exact match for what I run right now. Machine 1 is not online, and Machine 2 is using a 17" Apple Multiscan monitor. Hopefully I will be able to fix the larger monitor eventually, and go back to the setup I prefer.
