Peter,
Perhaps this could be a good use-case for Amazon EC2? I don't think it
would be *that* expensive, the High-CPU instances are surely more
powerful than your computer and won't have a power outage :) Here are
the two instances

http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/

High-CPU Medium Instance

1.7 GB of memory
5 EC2 Compute Units (2 virtual cores with 2.5 EC2 Compute Units each)
350 GB of instance storage
32-bit platform
I/O Performance: Moderate
Price: $0.20 per instance hour


High-CPU Extra Large Instance

7 GB of memory
20 EC2 Compute Units (8 virtual cores with 2.5 EC2 Compute Units each)
1690 GB of instance storage
64-bit platform
I/O Performance: High
Price: $0.80 per instance hour

One EC2 Compute Unit provides the equivalent CPU capacity of a 1.0-1.2
GHz 2007 Opteron or 2007 Xeon processor.

Of course I would understand if you don't want to spend any extra
money on this. Just remember that you only pay for these instances
when you are actually using them.
