Why throw away your old computer?\u00c2\u00a0 Even a 300 MHz can be installed with a decent operating system and run many low-processor intensive\u00c2\u00a0games for kids. It can service your network. Become a location to store backups of your information. Lots of uses.<\/p>\n
It can be donated to a school, a senior center, etc.\u00c2\u00a0 Why toss it? Especially after paid so much for it?<\/p>\n
Companies will even take them in trade. Sell your old computer and get credit towards a new computer. [1]<\/p>\n
Certainly, putting it in the trash where mercury, lead,\u00c2\u00a0and other toxic chemicals enter the ecosystem is not very good. I am not a green, but even I have some sense.<\/p>\n
I do have lots of computers around. My mom got back\u00c2\u00a0her\u00c2\u00a08088. I still have my 486 SX\/DX (25 MHz) which is dead, my 66 MHz Pentium I, a\u00c2\u00a0166 MHz a friend gave me also dead, and a 233 MHz my mom gave me. Of course, I went from the 233 MHz to a 1.4 GHz. WTF?<\/p>\n
One of these days, I am going to drop a light-weight Unix operating system on the 233 and a\u00c2\u00a0big drive. I will store data there.<\/p>\n
