This is a rad project.

I'm pretty sure my Windows XP gaming-savvy desktop circa 2001 still works in the basement.  AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1ghz processor, Sound Blaster sound card, some kind of Radeon card, DVD-writer, Gravis gamepad, Logitech joystick, can't remember the amount of RAM but it was a ton at the time.
