I was going to specify the same computer that I have. First computer that I ever used: Compaq, and it still works. The floppy drives have failed, but the hard drive still functions with all of the dos games, etc. My father, who purchased it, indicated that it cost him ~$4000. He told me that a few decades ago, so I could be mistaken, or he could have upgraded the components to be more modern. It does have a massive 60 MB hard drive. As a child I upgraded it to have full 640k memory and 1.5M expanded memory and additional IO ports. This and an XT(which I no longer own) got me into the realm and love of computers as a child.
