It’s not worth shipping and handling, it’s beaten up, and I don’t know anybody who wants it. Nothing is upgradeable, unless you count inserting a microSD card.
Of course I could use it as a janky media server or a dumb SSH terminal, but I’ve already got other machines for those jobs. Or I could recycle it, but what’s the fun in that? Suggest me your wackiest programs to try, dangerous distros, or most unorthodox setups to make use of it.
There are also charities that take donations of old laptops and use them for things like education in places that don’t have access to a lot of technology, so I guess you could recycle them in that sense.
That would be reuse, not recycle ;)
But that’s a nice suggestion
