I would hope you would consider donating you old computer equipment to St.
Vincent De Paul vs. Goodwill.  I worked as a computer tech for Goodwill for
a short time; in the end I walked on them.  I found them to be interested in
the money only.  I felt that the way they treated potential customers to be
poor.  I have since been over to the St. Vincent De Paul as-is center, where
they have a computer dept.  I found the guy, Guss, who ran it to be
light-years better.  He even has some Linux systems.  This is just my
opinion, but go see for yourself.  I don't think anything has changed in six
months.

I would hope that EFN can spot OPN a few bucks for some $9 ethernet cards.

A few skipped business lunches would cover it.

I attempted to donate a large amount of hardware a few months ago from a
business that was upgrading, but I was turned away.  At least 20 Pentium
PC's with NIC's, amongst a pile of other useful parts.  Lane county
recycling ended up taking it.

I'm sorry to see that state of affairs.  All my stuff goes to Goodwill
now, as well as discards from businesses I upgrade.
