Old man's computer
Thought I'd post what an old geezer has for a computer. I used to build mine from scratch but done with those days. Have an ASUS ROG 751J 17" laptop (not really a laptop) that does more than I need ...

My desktop is a little more barebones than yours, and my computer itself could do with an upgrade. :p The computer is a home built desktop.
I seem to be running some of the same programs. Not near as powerful as you guys though.
I used to have quite a bit more programs on mine, but since I performed a clean FCU install I have yet to reinstall them. I probably won't do all of them, but I'll definitely reinstall Steam and my Half-Life and Half-Life 2 games fairly soon.
Later I might take a snapshot of my Acer notebook. You want to see a weak computer? I'm surprised that thing even has enough in it to get online. :p A 1Ghz processor. SMH.
I wish I still had my VIC-20. That was a fun computer.
Yeh I love retro computers. Learned in the days of the Commodore Pet.... but I was raised an Atarian. Purchased my 1st Atari, an 800, in 1980 with my paper-route money. Those were the days kids peddaled on bikes in the early AM delivering news papers, through rain, sleet, and snow. Walked up hill, both ways... 10 miles. LOL.
I have an all Atari room with the 2600 being the oldest, but for real computer it was the 400/800. All fun stuff.
I am into Amiga systems now... modern Amiga NG systems that run Workbench or what they call AmigaOS now. Yes this OS is till around and derived from old Workbench 3.1 days...
