I figure a VM costs me $25-50 in RAM and SSD space.  Because it's not a 
full OS, Wine's slice of SSD and RAM is more like $10, and a lot of it 
is shared among Wine instances if you have more than one running.

I purposefully said "and licensing" though, because the Windows license 
swamps the hardware costs.
