That just raises more questions for me:
How does it fair against used motor oil?
What viscosity does WVO end up having?

If I owned a house I would just build a generator and try it, but I feel the apartment complex would have a problem with that.

In fact, I read a recent news headline that Intel was quitting producing an old processor, but I can't remember if it's the 8086 or the 386 (it definitely wasn't the 8088 or the 80286 -- and why didn't they ever make an 80186?)...but I can't find it now.
The 80186 was used in mostly embedded systems. Not really in personal computers. The processor your talking about is probably the 386. They produced that chip from 1986 until September of 2007. Manufactured for 21 years. Simply incredible. I can't find a kill date for the 486 but I'm fairly sure they stopped producing it first.
