Hello. Quick question, I have a bit of old computer bits up in the loft, which I don't think I'm ever going to use, so.. - Is there any charity etc that takes old hardware for re-use? - Is there anyone on the list looking for old hardware. If I remember correctly, I've got a motherboard, memory, graphics card(maybe cards) and an old PSU. Dave

I'd be interested in this too. I have loads of old machines at work which I need to get rid of at some point. A couple of years ago I uses an electronics recycling firm to get rid of a load. They charged \A350 to send a van and you could put as much in it as you could fit. IIRC it was a 3.5 tone van so that's a lot of computers! I don't think thats what Dave's after but thought I would mention it. On 26/02/2012 19:52, dave(a)staffslug.org.uk wrote:

Have either of you tried Stafford Freegle or one of the other local recycling/salvaging groups? If you want to know more about them please just ask. I do not have any ties or links to Stafford Freegle by the way other than running a similar recycle/salvage network. -- ============================================== Kevan Linux user #373362 Staffordshire ********************************************** www.freeworld-recycling.org 'Just Free it.' **********************************************
