Ten years ago was 1995.  The top of the line PC was a Pentium 133 (ATX
had only just been standardised, so it may still have been AT), and
Windows 95 was the latest and greatest OS to run on it.

I think 10 years might be asking a little much, unless you're not
planning on doing much with it after a couple of years  :)
