Welcome, thanks for sharing!
To me, interest in DOS and old systems is a phase thing. Sometimes I am very into it, and then I can not touch my DOS system / DOS games collection for months at a time, focusing on more modern titles.
I have just recently reconnected my old DOS/Win98 PC at my parents place and discovered it still works more or less fine. However, since I don’t live there anymore – I rarely use it, relying on my DOSBox image of it most of the time.
