What do you do with your old computers and components?
Do you find a way to repurpose them, sell them, just throw them out?

Neah, it needs a good layer of plaster and paint, and some carpet (depends how damp the basement is). At the least some fucking linoleum if you're that cheap.

>>60707297
Recycle them with a non-profit that refurbishes them and donates them to underprivileged charities and schools.

>>60709019
It puts the lotion on its skin

>>60709019
throw a carpet down and it would be a pretty cozy little place

>>60707297
heh

I have the Desktop. Then I have the Home Server that's a firewall and a NAS with a RAID array. I also have a big RAID array NAS that I just turn on when I need to copy something to or from it, it's like an external HDD that shows up on the network when I press the power button.

Upgrades have pretty much gone like this for two decades, I upgrade the desktop and then I put the desktop's motherboard/CPU in the 24/7 NAS and put that in the fileserver. Right now that fileserver has a Athlon II x3. By the time I upgrade the desktop that Athlon II isn't worth very much (it isn't now) and I'll probably just throw it away.

Upgrading my "servers" hardware with them
>>
Donate them to poor friends
>>
Put them in a closet or drawer until I have a use for them
>>
After I accumulate too much shit I rage purge and take it all to one of those free e-recycling days. LAst time i dumped like 6 desktops and my childhood trs-80 iii. I should have kept the trs-80 but all the disks got ruined in a water leak at my parents house years ago.
