If its a genuine retail XP licence, thats worth a few quid. The hardware is worth nothing.

I have been skipping P4s for over a year as I cant give them away.

Got the old OOF server sat here (3G P4 I think), but I wouldn't give that away, as it is tired, need to take that down the skip soon.

At the school I work in, we skip ALL our computers every two years or so. No one can take them home as we destroy the hard drives. (Unlike banks, IR etc)

Not economically viable. Have you any idea how much damage a curious 7 year old can do to a computer. Leave them alone for five minutes and they are right into the system menu and doing some very weird things to it.

I hate binning stuff - if I can't sell it charity bag it or give it away

You won't sell it (worthless), and charities can't take it as discussed earlier. So bin it.

We all drive bloody great cars, so are hardly 'greenies'
