http://www.framingham.com/cgi-bin/cal/cal.cgi ------------------------------ I have no idea if the cost is reasonable. I'm considering taking out a few hard disks and sending some old computers I've got. I seem to remember some posts about recycling computers on BBLISA in the last few months but a search of my email archive didn't turn it up. Am I just loosing it? Could someone send me a link the the place that clamed to destroyed/wiped enclosed media in a proper way along with recycling the system?
