Hi, Patricia,

It is good to know the options. Thanks.
Is there any similar shops in the

Thanks,

They take pretty much all old computer equipment and they fix it and either sell or give to needy children, schools, etc.  It is located right off of Glenwood Road.  Great way to get rid of your old junk and help others at the same time.  Plus it is a write off.  Here is a link to the web address....great organization.
