Once I bought my house in 97, my mind was made up - that 16 x30 garage would become Bluesman's Powerhouse Gym.
Power rack, chin bar, flat and incline bench, lat pull machine, and a shitload of DB's and about 1,000 lbs. of oly and standard iron, most used or given to me. I also have a heavy bag, padded in/out rugs, a couple of lights and a radio.
I love my gym - I haven't had a cold in years (I swear all of my sickness was from the nasty oly bars at the gym.), no assholes on cell phones or old ladies wearing gallons of perfume, no waiting for equipment...and I am the biggest guy in the gym.
If you have the means, I highly reccomend it.

I"ve got a home gym too.
It was either build a gym in my basement or drive an extra 30 miles after my already 1 hr commute each way to work.
I've got a decent set up now:
Titan Power Rack
Flat/incline/decline bench
Dip bars
Lat pulldown/low row
Reverse hyper machine
Seated Calf machine
power bar
curl bar
Squat box
Jump Stretch bands
adjustable dumbells up to 120s
3, 300lb oly sets and a couple extra 45's
and an elliptical machine
All the equipment is sitting on 14 4'x6' 3/4" thick rubber mats.
I play my own music and don't have to wait for equipment.
Given the investment I've made, they could build a West Side barbell club next door and my wife wouldn't let me join it.
The only thing I really lack (besides the Ironmaster dumbells and treadmill that I'll be getting within the next month) is a good motivational training partner.

Primarily at home - but at gym, too. You need to add another option for "both"
I have my own personal gym about 10 minutes from my house.
