$800 / $0.18 per hour = 4444.4 hours

I think you did: $800 / $18 per hour = 44 hours

Pretty big difference! Curious, does this change your value assessment?

Oh good catch! That works out to 185 days so it won't change anything, my pc will last a lot longer than that.

But then again, even a much lower cost wouldn't change things for me. For one I completely own my pc and can do anything I want on it, second I know it's secure & private and my data won't be used in ways i might not know about, and third there's no internet latency on input/output which is nice for gaming etc. I could go on but yeah I feel like it's clear owning is generally better than renting for many reasons

185 days of continuous use.. for many 4000 hours is easily a decade worth of gaming
