[Hidden-tech] What to do with all that stuff -- ideas

It turns out that the goodwill centers all take electronics of all types 
in conjugation with Dell: https://www.dellreconnect.com/

This is an especially good option since it (best I can tell) is free and 
takes all types of computers, accessorizes and other electronics.
Staples seems limited to relatively current laptops or other, and most 
other places want $10/machine (some are $5)

I have been adding all suggested to 
http://www.hidden-tech.net/project/free-cycle-and-share/

BTW, not clue about "P Allen & Sons, the recycling yard on Route 10" - 
all I can find is a company in KS

Thanks all - stay safe - Rich
