Yeah, but it is quiet enough to put in your office and not drive your office 
mate out?

EMC offers dual socket 28 physical core processors. That's a lot of computer.

And another reason why you might want your own.
Every so often, the notice from JPL's HPC goes out to the users - 
"Halo/Gattaca/clustername will not be available because it is reserved for Mars 
{Year}"  While Mars landings at JPL are a *big deal*, not everyone is working 
on them (in fact, by that time, most of the Martians are now working on 
something else), and you want to get your work done.  I suspect other 
institutional clusters have similar "the 800 pound (363 kg) gorilla has 
requested" scenarios.
