What to do with Old Laptops?

Eduardo L.
Offline

Hello everyone!

I was wondering what do you do with old laptops.

I have had quite a few uses for mine: router, server, extra screen, extra storage...

Was wondering if you have any cool stuff you have been doing with your older hardware.

Best regards!

    Hmm that's a great question! Usually I try to recycle them or trade them in for a new one but using one as a second screen or hard drive is an interesting option. I might have to look into that lol.

    I still have mine around, but they don't work so well anymore. I'm not sure if I want to throw it out though.

    I refurbish and wipe the hard drive and donate to local Charter Schools in my area.

    We crush the hard drives and then recycle everything

    Recycle. Whenever I get a new laptop it's because the old one is too arthritic to do anything useful.

    Wipe storage absolutely clean and sell whatever it's worth to someone who finds it useful, otherwise donate if there's any taker, lastly recycle.

    I would sell it to get some money to go towards a replacement laptop Computer.

  • I keep old laptops along with their accessories in a storage area.
