 | the computer – it is dead |
Sorry for my absence. It’s not that I’m dead, and I assume none of you have died either (my condolences if you have). But I am still without regular computer access. Dane and I have officially given up on the old computer and have ordered a shiny new one. It should be here… not soon enough.
So what do you do with a dead computer? Flush it down the toilet? Bury it in the backyard? Run it through the wood chipper? Put the parts on eBay and pray that someone wants 5-year-old used/dead PC components?
Instead of those fun alternatives, we’re thinking about sending it off to recycling heaven at MyBoneYard.com. Has anyone ever tried this service? Do you have other recommendations? Feel free to, you know, talk amongst yourselves. I’ll check back, uh, later.
I’m sorry for your loss.
Goodwill has a computer recycling service. It’s free!
Glad to hear you’ll be back online soon.
U-m-m-m. Were you here? I didn’t see you. Do you have another secret computer friend? I look forward to your little visits with my computer, if only so I can enjoy Audrey.

Costco has a “green” recycling program here –> http://www.costco.com/Common/Category.aspx?cat=74674&eCat=BC|79|74674&lang=en-US&whse=BC
In case the link doesn’t work you can just go to costco.com, click on the computers tab, and then on the recycling link!!
we recycled our old one when it died (after we removed the mother board and beat it to bits. can’t be too careful, you know!) ha ha
Look at you guys, with all the suggestions! Thank you! It’ll probably be another week before the new computer arrives on my doorstep, motivating me to dispose of the old one.
Still??? What is this the Dark Ages?
