Ever thought of writing an emulator? On Reddit theres /r/EmuDev which is a nice place.

For example you could start by writing a CHIP8 emu, then a Space Invaders Emu. After Space Invaders most people write a Game Boy(almost same CPU as Space Invaders and hardware is well documented) emu, but you could try to do a 8086 PC if you want to know more about "real" computers.

There are free BIOS you can use, and FreeDOS, and then rest of the machine is pretty well documented.
