[kwlug-disc] Lots of tech stuff to give away

[Paul Nijjar]

The Working Centre will take enterprise stuff but it mostly will get
e-wasted. They really do better with good quality consumer stuff.
Charles (who is presenting tonight!) could give a better answer on
this, however.

Maybe a KWLUG member (or several members) would be willing to take the
lot off your hands and then redistribute it via /r/homelabsales or
similar? Then at least the stuff will get used, and you don't have to
worry about the logistics.
