What to do with old computer?
I recently purchased a new computer, and I'm not quite sure what to do with my old desktop and monitor. It's a Dell from 2003, so it's a bit old and it runs slowly. I still have all of the original software and drivers. Any suggestions?

You can bring it to a Best Buy store to be recycled, they take them for free.
One important piece of advice, though. Please destroy or safely overwrite your hard drive before you do anything with it! And just deleting your files does not do the trick...there are several online tutorials on how to do this, please check them out.
Donating is good because you get the tax write off but make sure you delete AND erase any personal info from the hard drive. Even though you delete it the information may still be there. Get a program that will scrub your hard drive clean
good luck
