What is everyone running their FreeDOS on?

Ok, right now I am running FreeDOS under DosBox on my production laptop, but it might be nice to have a small machine, preferably a desktop, that will still boot in Legacy Mode.

Is there a machine I can buy new that I might be able to outfit with a 5.25 and 3.5 floppy drive? That can boot Legacy Mode? Extra points if it can also boot Legacy mode from a USB stick or Ventoy external drive!

Btw cost is an important consideration.

    I stumbled upon a Dell Optiplex 760 in a local flea market for $20.00 ! it runs FreeDOS now really well. I have yet to find a driver for the CD/DVD drive but then I don’t use that much.
