And if you were doing that in most of Western Europe/Canada/etc you would
have been receivign vastly more than someone in many other countries
working 50hours a week.

I would question your maths on disk costs and electricity pricing too. To
an extent its an open question given there's a human work cost involved
but even a reasonably efficient modern machine running 24 x 7 is using a
fair amount of kWh with associated costs.

Suspend cuts a lot of this and in some cases may well be a better option.
Virtual machines also change the patterns as you can migrate your working
environment between systems.
