but will there be a steady income from the machines?
I think 5$ an hour from every machine should do..

 A more realistic goal on CPU mining would be to achieve $2-3 dollars A DAY per CPU, and that is only possible due to the major price runup Monero has had the last few days and you need either a VERY high-end many-core CPU or a very recent high-end multi-core CPU to have a chance at that.
 Then you have to subtract the cost of the electric they use (14 core Xeons are quite power hungry as I recall).

 For reference, even with the recent MAJOR profitability increases in most coins, my highest-income rigs with 3 x GTX1070 GPUs pull in very close to $1/hour.

There is close to zero revenue from mining Bitcoin with PC hardware.
It is not a wise idea.

Bitcoin mining today is done with ASIC hardware, like for example Bitmain Antminer S9, Canaan AvalonMiner 741, Ebit E9, ...
Fine let's say I can get 10 of the linked hardware for free, can I get a good ammount of money? And don't pay bills and such.
What if I would mine ETH?

LOL are you going to steal that hardware haha. I am not quite sure for btc but you can try some other altcoins and see what the profit will be. Since you are going to steal and not pay electricity I see no problem in mining what every you like.

no coin using SHA256 is worth mining on CPUs or GPUs.
For CPU and GPU mining try the Altcoin section.

Can I mine with CPU without GPU?
I can buy some servers for cheap
2 CPU Xeon E5-2683v3 14 cores (28 total cores)
Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard 64bit
[100 Mb/s flat connection]
32 GB Ram.
Is there a way to know how many GH/s ?
