In 2014, when you can get an OpenVZ VPS or DigitalOcean VPS for less than $5 a 
month, any expense you put into hosting at home is money wasted. The VPSes are 
transparently upgraded, have no noise, no power requirements, will stay up if 
you have an outage, have much more bandwidth than you do (even with a 
business-class connection), and have no real downsides other than not being on 
physical hardware. If that's your concern, OVH has cheap dedicated Atoms for 
$10/month that'll do anything and everything you want.

Having a server at home for a lab, internal DNS, and other stuff to play with 
is definitely nice. But hosting external services from your home is a losing 
proposition.
