Hardware Disposal/Recycling

Often we receive hardware that is not usable for computer labs. Sometimes the hardware is broken, missing components, or simply to slow to run a reasonably current version of Linux. If it makes sense to keep hardware for spare parts, we should keep it. Otherwise, we should dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way.
