systems my school was throwing away

I wish people threw away perfectly usable stuff in places I could easily find them.

The computers they were throwing away were broken, and they didn't have a use for PC-133 RAM any more.

Over here, people usually sell that level of stuff to some known parts dealer for pretty cheap.
I am just a hoarder who has kept my last few phones hoping to some day be able to use their high quality cameras with something else.
