Blade Watch

An article talking about what to do with that old desktop, an issue that’s been on the news recently, did a research group not buy a series of pcs and find a whole host of important data on them despite them being wiped?

Regardless recycling the pcs need to continue, I’d like to see more services kind of based on the mopay model. If you haven’t seen it, you basically whack your phone in an envelope and post it, they then send you money for the model. I’m not so much after the money, just for example I have 256MB RAM chips, a few hard drives which I’ve wiped sitting around, they all work. I’d like to get them out the house, as I understand it, I can’t just post it to Dell or anyone so I have to take it to my local council. Could I not just post it to someone or drop it off in PC World locally to have it tested/re-used or recycled by a charity or anyone else?
