It does *wonders* for our public relations being the top-10 site which isn't plastered with ads. Wikipedia gets a LOT of slack for that - highly imperfect, but a non-profit volunteer project that continues to try hard. I fervently hope we can afford to continue this way.
Agreed, there are a lot of costs I think the Foundation could cut before having to do something so drastic. Not that I think they *should* be cut if we have the money, which right now I think we do. But if we can't run the servers, I don't think we should be funding Wikimania at all, much less in exotic locations.
