It's nice too when you can have a dedicated art workstation. My main work machine is a tiny eeeBox PC but when it comes to really working hard in Inkscape I have to move over to the AMD dual-core workstation so that the system doesn't choke down and hamper my flow.
I agree that it's fantastic that OpenSource is bringing to us all these very good tools now. Sure, there's still a long way to go on some of them to make them the same level as top-ranking commercial products, however by a wide margin they already offer more features than what we are using. We did the entire "Tree of Life" all using Open Source software - it's a great feeling to be able to do that and have the fantastic quality output (Really, when it comes to typesetting and quality output almost nothing beats TeX).
