I was having issues running Pro Tools at home with the Original Mbox that I needed to run it through not working properly with my computer or monitors, so I decided to upgrade to Pro Tools 9, which runs straight through my PC – and far more stably. This makes me feel a lot better about having my ridiculously over-sized and expensive monitors functioning properly. Two of these pretty much dominate my room now.

I also decided to purchase a Faderport, making mixing in my bedroom easier. Although, despite the manufacturers promising me otherwise, it's not entirely compatible with Pro Tools 9 (yet), which is great. It was a nice idea though, emulating a larger mixer so I don't have to use a mouse (which doesn't work well at all when automating volume or effects in comparison to a fader).
