The Gateway 2000 P5-100 was released around 1995. According to the advertisement I found, it sold for around $2,995. In 2014 dollars, that would be $4,662. Not a small sum for a computer which was being sold as a "family PC".
It came with an Intel 100MHz Pentium processor, 16MB RAM, 4x CD-ROM player and a 1GHz harddrive. It operates with DOS 6.2 and Windows 3.1.
The system I purchased used on eBay, has 8MB RAM, a ZipDrive and a 2GHz harddrive. I'll be upgrading all of the drives to new or refurburished, removing the Zipdrive and also adding a 5.25" floppy drive.
Here's a front and back view of the system:
