Hi, 
  FindRoot works quite well; of course, there are lots of sols and it
depends on where you start. Some examples:


FindRoot[{x==x^1.2/(2*x^3+y^0.7+4*z^2.5),
               y==y^0.7/(2*x^0.6+y^2+z^2.2),
              z==0.9*z^1.5/(x^0.7+2*y^0.2+z^1.1)},{x,0},
   {y,1},{z,0}]

yields  x= 0, y=1, z=0


FindRoot[{x==x^1.2/(2*x^3+y^0.7+4*z^2.5),
               y==y^0.7/(2*x^0.6+y^2+z^2.2),
              z==0.9*z^1.5/(x^0.7+2*y^0.2+z^1.1)},{x,1},
   {y,1},{z,0}]

yields
x = 0.666841,y = 0.204393, z=0


FindRoot[{x==x^1.2/(2*x^3+y^0.7+4*z^2.5),
               y==y^0.7/(2*x^0.6+y^2+z^2.2),
              z==0.9*z^1.5/(x^0.7+2*y^0.2+z^1.1)},{x,.2},
   {y,.7},{z,0}]

yields
x=0.207116, y=0.615659,z=0
