G'day,

While searching for existing searchable archives of classiccmp, I found
<URL:http://epainotes1.rtpnc.epa.gov:7777/r10/owcm.nsf/recycle/pcrecycle>:

[...]

Computers and electronic equipment that still work, but are obsolete, may
be suitable for reuse. Check with local schools, training institutions, or
non-profit organizations to find out if they accept donations of this type
of equipment, or use the list of recycling options to obtain the names of
organizations that will repair, consolidate, or reassemble the equipment
before donating or selling it.

There are a growing number of hobbyists interested in very old computers.
Any machine that is "so obsolete that it can't be reused" may actually be
of great interest, and potentially worth much more than its value in scrap
metal. Older is better here. There is a "classic computer" mailing list at
classiccmp_at_u.washington.edu , and more info can be found at any of these
web pages:
