I've actually recommend this to a couple people lately that had me build them second computers to do things like photo editing. One of them has followed my advice, the other told me it was great advice, then the next time I was at her house, she had plugged it into her cable connection with her other PC.
I run a second PC at home that is off the net, it can be a pain though. Software needs updates, some software makes it difficult to install and register without a connection. So many vendors now assume all pc's are net connected.
