Current: last PPC 1.33ghz 12" iBook and Rev. B iMac G5.
The iBook basically gets used for around the house stuff and typing university papers. The iMac is for photos, family movies, music storage, and the programming stuff i am starting to get into in college.
WHAT: my next purchase - Not quite sure yet. Ideally, i would sell my iBook and iMac to get a MBP and Mac mini. But i would prefer not to get a 15in laptop, which is why i am hoping for a 13in MBP.
WHY: My CS&E classes might start to require windows and i would prefer not to have to buy a separate windows computer.
WHEN: Looking at around spring/summer of 2007. My sister is graduating and wants my current iBook (so that is sold pretty much). Plus i am waiting for Leopard and the Santa Rosa setup to come standard.

What I've got: Macbook.
Why: I was sick of a 1 GHz PC with 128 MB of RAM that crashed several times a week. 'Twas time for a new computer, and macs were the way to go. Oh, and I love the portability.
What Next: The Macbook of the time.
When: When I start uni, in about 4 years time.
