What to do with used laptops?

[decflower]

The school I am starting in the fall gives us a new computer. So, I am trying to get rid of my four year old one. I found a webside, cash for laptops, but I am not sure how reliable they are. Anybody know of a good way to get a couple of hundred dollars for a used laptop?

I know Dell has a donation program. You don't get cash, but you get $ off toward a future purchase.

I just took mine apart and hung it on my wall. Laptop motherboards make pretty art.

If you actually want money for it though you could list it on craigslist.org.

definitely try craigslist.org, but please be aware of what your laptop is worth....there are definitely some four year old laptops out there worth a few hundred bucks, but not that many of them... when you price it, think if you would buy it for that price -- emotional value not included

I love craigslist! Just keep the real value in mind, and remember, the lower the price, the more chance of getting rid of it!

Maybe ebay or half.com

Also try putting signs around your school and see if anyone wants to buy it.

Mount it on your wall as a picture frame.
