I am a sucker for nostaglia. I've recently thought about putting together an old PC, something to take me back to the 1990's as I enjoy a lot of games from the early to late 90's. Some of these old games today aren't so functional due to things such as graphics cards (and their drivers), multi-core processors, and a 64-bit environment. Anyway, I just thought it would be a fun venture to take on.
So, just for fun, if you guys were piecing together an 90's computer, which components would you use and which OS? Everything has to be from the late 80's to the early 2000's, say 1988-2002 (just to allow some leeway). So, no Windows XP for example. Reasons can be anything from having a powerful enough system to copy with late-90's software, to just personal preference and personal nostalgia.
