I've been having server troubles and never saw this come accross. Anyway, I think it's a good idea for getting rid of old PC junk, rather than just tossing them in the landfill. Well, if no one else makes a claim, the older smaller capacity drives are usually in demand for amateur radio clubs. I have a reserve here for my local club (in northern NJ). As an incentive, most of these clubs in the US are 501(c)3 corporations. You would be able to take these as a tax deduction. Find comparables on a refurb site, save the comparable resale value from when you donate as documentation of a resonable price, and count them as donations at the end of the year. Much of this also applies to older 486 computers. A lot of the software still used on the packet backbone (where it still exists) will not run on newer machines. Of course, I am not an accountant (IANAA?), so please verify all of this, especially the comparables bit. Kelly
