I feel your pain. I have about 6 or 7 perfectly good 17" CRT monitors sitting in corners around here that I can't GIVE away. (Mostly Trinitron- damn things Will Not Die.) I'm too much of a cheap SOB to send working equipment to be demanufactured, and my long-dead EE grandfather would haunt me if I did. All leftovers from a brief period when it was possible to make a few bucks on the side buying used commercial PCs in bulk, cleaning them up, and reselling them at half the price of a new one. Moore's law bit me in the ass, and I am stuck with a couple hundred bucks (my cost) of working PIII PCs that are essentially worthless. One of these days I'll throw Ubuntu on the lot of them, and put them on Freecycle, just to get rid of them. (Perfectly competent e-mail terminals for people that can't get their kids off the 'real' PC for five minutes.)
