I have an old Windows XP desktop that has a number of issues.

Should I recycle it at a local center or give it for free on Craigslist? I read that some of the places will sell good parts (which my desktop has), and I don't want that.

What do you guys do with old tech?

Toss it in the electronics recycling bin in my condo's basement.

I'd probably try to fix said issues and clean it up. I love old, obsolete tech.

The power switch is out of wack, and the graphics card doesn't do anything. It's an AGP card, so going through the trouble of finding a working replacement is too much of a hassle.

Since people like you love old, obsolete tech, it seems like I should give it away for free on CL instead of letting a company shred it for scrap. (I have taken the HDD out already.)
