Message: [QUOTE="wkomorow, post: 851644, member: 6775"] I know this is the last thing you want to hear, but one other thing to consider, electronic equipment contains heavy metals that need proper disposal. In several states, including mine, you can not simply throw these items away - you need to pay to have them recycled. Here, you would be fined or even face jail time (given the number of pieces) for improper disposing of hazardous materials. I believe that California and Maine have similar protection. Even if you are in a state with less stringent disposal laws, there is still a moral issue about simply throwing heavy metals into a landfill. Sorry, it's very Massachusetts of me, I know. [/QUOTE]
