I have all three. 8-)

SunBlade 1000:  *REALLY* nice machine.  Mine is actually underused; its my
desktop box running SSH, Netscape, compiles, etc.  I watch movies on it
(showmetv).  etc.

Mac G4:  My A/V/Game box.  Mine's actually a G4 Cube, 450Mhz.  I do all
my multimedia work on this machine, and its *great* running OS X.  I've
got a scanner, cd burner, and a dual-deck (DV/VHS) Firewire-connected
VCR hooked up to it.

Ultra 60:  Home DNS / fileserver.

It really depends on what you want to use them for.  I also have a 
SunBlade 100, which I have here at work (although I own it).
