If it does what you need it to do, great.

Nah, I'm not jealous of your frugality.  Indeed, if I had a need for a 
minimally capable PC, I have a couple of them sitting around that I 
could put back into service...plus I wouldn't have sold one last month 
for more than 10x your bargain find.

Which still comes back to the question of if one's capability needs are 
being satisfied or not, such as you and your $12 Special:  it seems that 
being able to post texts to USENET is met, but is there anything else 
that its needed for which is more demanding?  If not, great:  you're all 
set.
