Additional Hardware:

Oddles of gigabit LAN cable
Various other PC's running Windows XP-Pro

8 Port Gigabit Switch (Brand is irrelevant as long as it's not managed)
Billion Bipac adsl 2+ modem/router (Everything forwarded to LMCE router)
Other bits and pieces security related I prefer not to document for security reasons

My personal experiences with Linux MCE:
