Not a matter of finance, really. I run Mint 17 on a 12 yr old laptop, 40gb drive - that is one of my two relays. I regularly save the key so when this thing finally goes south, I can have another up in a couple hours. The other relay is on a 8 yr old laptop! These were both dumpster items - cost to me was just time.

The sentiment that the rest of the list is trying to impress on you

that by running a Tor nod on XP you are potential putting the
entire Tor

How more so than the malicious actor simply running his own node(s)?
