Here's my little station. I apologize for the poor image quality, it's the best I could do with my phone:

Yeah, I love my Razer Abyssus! It's got that smooth texture and it's most comfortable mouse I've used; shape, size, sensitivity, perfect for me.

In that photo I've got the Razer Lycosa Mirror Edition keyboard and the Razer Piranha headset. Not in the photo I also have the Razer Orochi mouse, which is sleek but I was ultimately disappointed with so I made it my backup mouse (it is tough to beat the Abyssus for comfort and on-screen control).

EDIT:
Forgot to mention, the mouse pad is a Razer Goliathus ;D

Those speakers looked exactly like mine, until I noticed the center channel.  Surround Logitechs?

Yep! The good old, reliable Logitechs :D The surround satellites are set up around the corners of my room, behind the seat. I've had that set for years and they're still great.

Cool.  I'm really impressed with the 2.1s I got for my limited space a few years ago.  They are so clear and well balanced.  They can't compete with the Klipsch set I have stored away, but they are so good for the size and money.

Does Klipsch even still do computer speakers?  My volume saucer is flaking out, Klipsch has discontinued them and has no replacements, and the component repair place they referred me to wants $75.  I was just going to buy a new set, but I can't seem to find anything.

Everything else seems like a huge step down.

Oh yeah, they're pretty awesome.

I have an Edifier 5.1 set as well. The set is great but it has one fatal flaw: all controls (volume, balance, bass) are only on the remote control and the damn thing is broken. Since none of the local stores could provide a replacement, I contacted Edifier to have a new remote control sent over and it turns out that would cost me about $100 (with shipping); I saw no point in pursuing that.

Your spaces are all so uncluttered. I'd say I was jealous if I wasn't going for something a little different. I'm still working out the details, but I'll have a space that'll turn from a computer station to a painting station with a turn of the chair. I've even managed to hide a small compressor in there for the new airbrush setup.

Mine is flaky too, though it settles down with a bit of fiddling.  Amazing speakers let down by a lousy component.  I have an older Pro set as well, and that one developed some noisy vibration on the satellite with the volume control (built into the bottom).  The electronics module apparently is not coupled rigidly enough to the rest of the speaker.  So it seems they had enough QA problems to send them packing.  Such a shame, because you're right: while their stuff works right, nothing else can touch it.
