How much does HN actually take to run?

  At least $400k, ballpark, factoring in the employee costs.

    There is no way this is true. People were running BBS systems out of computers in their closet in 1997, with thousands of users.

    As hilarious as this is as a statement, I'd really love to see some backup for this as I just cannot believe this is even close to true.
