Ha, sounds just like mine!
The only differences were that I upgraded mine from a 486 to a Pentium 90(!) and bolted an internal Iomega Jaz tape drive to the outside of the case for more storage. It ran Windows 3.1, which allowed me to wile away the time playing SkiFree when I was young.
My QBasic game was a word guessing game. It was fun to write, and not fun at all to play.
