Honestly that's a lot lower than I would have expected. Internet hosting is very cheap and for a company like Wikimedia would basically come down to their bandwidth costs. But labor, especially skilled labor (like they're hiring) is very expensive. I would have expected it to be a lot higher.

They had ~2.6 million articles then, and ~5.6 million today. It's nothing abnormal to me and quite small still (esp sitting next to Google, Youtube, Facebook) but I appreciated how efficiently they ran with the help of volunteers.
