Down to 5.

Had a lot more but i found the more I had the more mess I had to deal with and the less any of them got used.

Decided to pear it down to 2 CSPPC 4000s (one with a soon-to-be-here Mediator), a BPPC 1200, an SX32 CD32 and a 4000 for parts...that's more than enough for my needs and I find that I actually use them all more as a result as it takes a lot less time to maintain them.

I used to go for quantity but figured out it was the thrill of getting the part than meant more to me than actually owning it. The number of items I bought and put straight into the drawer is obscene. Now I go for quality with the 'best of the best' in each and forget the rest :)

Can't risk poisoning the wife's garden with plastic and silicon, casualties of war are generally cannibalized for projects and what's left piles up until the pile earns a trip to the scenic landfill in the Amiga hearse.

Had 5 (4x A500 and 1 A1200)  but either sold or gave them away.

Now I have just 1 dead A500 mobo hanging on my shed wall as a sort of memorial.

Thanks to a recent acquisition, I'm up to 18 but must admit that one A500 is a bit flaky and one A1200 is complete and fully functional minus the case.

(for the purists, I didn't count the two computers that I regularly run WinUAE on.)

I do use them all quite often, but always gravitate back to using my original 1987 purchased A1000 more than any of the others. No special reason other than it feels like quality time with an old friend.

How many computers can you use at once?
And, more to the point, can you point to one that you can use to get everything you need done on?

Amigas? At this point, NONE!

One Powermac running MorphOS, some money set aside for a Batami, and relieved to have gotten all that old crap out of the house.

Current count looks like there are 8 miggies in my home at the moment:
A500, A500+, C= A1200, AT A1200, A2000, A3000, A4000D, A4000T. Two more are due to arrive soon (Another A500 and A500+) for repairs.
(Looks like I should probably update my sig)
