When I get more desk space in a few weeks/months, I have some other machines to set up, including a 100% fully decked out Dell Dimension 2400 with all the options, a Macintosh Quadra 950 I still want to kit out, and I've been amassing parts for my dream 386 build. Yet to come, though.

im running an athlon xp 2000+, geforce 2 mx, and 1gb of ddr ram, my other pc is a bit newer with a core 2 duo, 2gb ddr2, and a geforce 7600gt

The main system I have is a Dell Inspiron N7010, with 4GB memory and 500GB hard drive. I've had it for over thirteen years and everything still runs smoothly, because I've taken good care of it.

My other one is a Lenovo IdeaPad that runs on Windows 10 and has 4GB memory as well, but only 128GB disk space. This was a gift from my brother months ago, and had intended to use it as a work laptop though this hasn't happened yet... but I still use it from time to time though.
