Why would you need 5 Macs? I'm really curious.

I'm an iOS developer among things...

1 iMac for home, 1 MBA for myself, 1 MBP for the wife, 1 iMac at work (primary work machine), 1 Mac Mini as a build machine at work,

I'm planning on buying another mini as an HTPC as well :) Now, go ahead and ask me how many iPad's I have lol

Living alone and working from home, I don't see the need to have that much computers for myself but I can understand the need for you.

Yea, I think it would be best to just have one machine. It's very difficult to keep 4 dev environments in sync (mackup is some help).

As for living alone, you can decide if that's best :)
