If your pump is disconnected, it's fine, but if the belt is still on, you should not run the engine without fluid in the system.

If you plan to never run P/S again, then run it w/o fluid. I had a P/S line bust on me in the work parking lot and it made one heck of a mess in the engine bay. I said F it and didn't touch it till the day I sold the car. *'95 Ford Escort btw
