No, unless you are figuring in the cost of electricity to run that
beast. Figure $35.00 a month if you leave it on all day. Like the
other guy said, if you heat with electricity you could just use it as
a furnace in the winter. Conversely, if you have AC and run it in the
summer, figure in the cost of reversing the heat it will generate.
Those old disks are worthless too. It is kind of neat when the
cabinets shake after boot and the fsck is going on though.
