what to do with old sticks of memory - Mr Downtown - 06-16-2019
Cleaning out the "computer accessories" box today. I have a half-dozen or so DDRs and similar memory modules, probably 10-20 years old and pulled out of beige G3s, mirror-door G4s, who knows what, as I upgraded.
Are they useful in any way, or Just put them in the e-recycling bin?

If they are a decent size, list them o the forum sale column just in case for a week or so, then toss in the bin if not claimed by anyone.

Do a Google search for electronics recycling in your area.
My local municipal dump takes e-waste on Saturdays.

Some Mac users refuse to run anything higher than OS9 on their machines http://www.macos9lives.com/mac%20os%209%20lives_002.htm

I give my old computers & parts to a retired computer guru who builds working computers for the elderly and students who can’t afford to buy their own new machines. Yes, they’re dated but, an old computer is better than no computer,

I'm on a low end Mac group in Facebook. Maybe offer them for shipping?
