You don't need a separate computer for a Bitcoin node, you can just install Bitcoin core on whatever computer you already have.
The benefit is you are fully sovereign and don't depend on anyone else's computer to validate and broadcast transactions and improve your privacy (another node doesn't see your xpub)
You don't need umbrels or start9s etc
Can you run a test net node on the same computer or does it double the block chain size?
