If you're in a "warm" third world country you'll also have to factor in the costs of cooling. All of that semi-obsolete hardware makes a lot of heat, and it's not going to work for too long if the ambient temp is high.

Yup im in a warm country in Africa with AC's all over the place, but thats already set up so no extra cost..I basically have a 500 sq ft cooled room in the house and can plug in another 100+ kw for free so i figured i could make some money in the meantime
So its possible to lose money even though the only cost is hardware? no electricity?
