My first one ran dos and had the big floppy disks. Had wheel of fortune, monopoly and quicken. The gameplay on quicken was lacking.
The first one i really enjoyed was a packard bell 166mhz with windows 95. Was a beast with 16 mb of ram and almost 2 gigs of memory. I think my parents spent around 3 grand on it.

My first PC was a Pentium 75 and I no longer have that because it was an absolute piece of shit, but my first microcomputer was way, way before then.
Pic related: still have it, in the loft of my parents' place. Still have the tapes for it, in the loft too (and taken recordings of all the ones still audible). You've never seen a tape loading system less reliable, I swear to you. It still works as of a couple of years ago, although I don't think I have a screen it can connect to anymore and it started freezing a bit if you pressed the keys hard so there might be a couple of hairline fractures in the board.
I also had a (rare) Torch Communicator (surplus to requirements after the decommissioning of something I probably shouldn't talk about here but let's just say my dad worked in Cheltenham and the decommissioned building was really cool, had man-traps and a mainframe that read numbers over the radio). Don't have that machine anymore, it was sat in the shed at my parents' house and one day my mum accidentally put something through the monitor glass - it was built like a tank and survived a thunderstrike, but it didn't like that. Basically just a BBC Micro Model B with two 5 1/4" floppy drives and an extra Z80 daughterboard running CP/M; nothing "interesting" left on it but it sure played a mean game of Elite.
Then I had Atari computers; lost count of how many but I ended up with a souped-up Falcon before going to the Pentium.

C64, functional. Followed by A500, also functional.
Packard Bell Windows 95 tower. Had a 3.5' floppy but we never used it. Mostly played edutainment games and Maxis stuff.
