Getting these games to run was also a great learning experience in building and upgrading a computer.

Oh yeah.  I became a master of editing autoexec.bat and config.sys to get them to run, and to extract every scrap of memory possible.  X-Wing had to run on EMS memory (unlike just about every other DOS game at the time which used XMS).  That was a pain to configure.  I had a bootdisk for every game.
