Hi Gerard, Gerard wrote: > I was not aware of any place where they gave computers away. In the UK we call them "skips". Not sure what the rest of the world calls them.

Perfectly good computers are often found within.] Most of my CRT monitors come from skips. There's no shame in skipdiving when you can't afford hardware. :) Adam J Richardson
