You missed some important tests, let me help you with that:

if (($7.40 < $20)
   && (isp == RELIABLE)

Yup - lived here for 1.8 years, never an outage.

   && (power_company != UTAH_POWER)

I fled UT a while back. Idaho Power is good - had 1 outage I can remember, UPS kept things running perfectly.


   && (spouse_child_or_pet_unplugs_server == NO_BIG_DEAL)

spouse_child_or_pet cannot reach server (top shelf of custom room built in garage to store canned goods and hot computer equipment) - but, if they unplug it, no big deal.


  )
{
    buyHomeServer();
}
else
{
    useExternalSharedhost();
}
