RE: Computer Rescued from Trash is Running Like New
I'm considering bribing the younger guy at the dump (the friendly one) to see if he could send me a message when things come in. I'm not sure what the costs of shipping would be, but if I could put together PCs for essentially free, raise money for the parts and shipping by posting about it, and send them to people who can't afford a computer - well, it would make for a satisfying project.
Shipping would be a little expensive. I ship a lot of stuff and unless you have a massive corporate discount something like a computer is going to be cost prohibitive. You might be better off trying locally. Might be surprised how many people want an extra computer for the kids but don't want to dump a bunch of money on it.
That's true. I'm sure there are lots of folks within driving distance that could probably use one.
and a new side business is born ;)
Make sure to look at all those computers for any wallets that might be stored on them!! Maybe you run into some free bitcoin...wouldn't that be amazing. If you get rich after searching one of these computers don't forget about us little people...lol
Oh, now there's an exciting thought!
