i still use a p3 933mhz/256mb ram for general DOS'sing. it's old, but it's not that old; some games refuse to run unless i use a slowdown software. the built-in ac97 audio does not perform very well in emulating the soundblaster but it works for most games and applications.

I have a Windows 98 that runs slow as crap, with pieces from 1993, 1989, and 1997. It has X-Com, but it runs too fast, but it runs Descent like amazingness. The only issues are that it doesn't have internet, it doesn't read USB drives as storage things, and the moniter is pinked-out, but I still love it like I lvoe a grandparent

Not to be a but-in-ski but this site may help with setting up your USB storage devices to work with Win98. Worked for my PB rig.
