Seriously if it works! See nothing wrong with that. Case in point, when I worked for a big company, they were literally downsizing their entire IT department. And literally throwing away brand new laptops, tablets, and three servers, and two literal Dell workstations. I may have accidentally, put them all in my trunk. I'm currently typing this, on one of my, salvaged HP tablets. I also saved, a HP mini desktop. Literally from the trash, because they didn't see the value in replacing the hard drive. So they toss the whole system. Promptly took that out of the trash, and now I use it with a Linux install and I've configured it to be a deployment server for Windows. And I also run a few custom scripts from it, to preconfigure user IDs, and run a lot of Windows deep loading software I wrote. Really great when I do neighbors computers. Makes it super easy, and, I give them access over an IP, so that way they can dump all of their backup, back to their computers. Nice little gig I have.
