An IBM PC AT. I upgraded that bad boy to a 386SX by changing out the motherboard and RAM, adding a soundcard and purchasing an EVGA monitor all so I could play Wing Commander on it.

Although my Dad programmed mainframes back in the 70's when they used magnetic tapes and punch cards. He would sit me in front of a terminal that had some sort of star trek game on it while he worked in the evenings.

Nice! That Microsoft Station was an awesome machine back in the day. Do you still have it? It would make a killer Windows 95/3.11 gaming machine!
