That hardware, if running, can be repurposed.  SSDs are getting more 
affordable.  I've replaced the spinner in all of my computers and 
installed Linux, with the exception of two computers.  Someone who is on 
a budget might like to purchase your old computers.

Some say the lock down is/will kill the economy for the next decade.  If 
this is true recycling old computers will be more necessary than ever. 
Given the new hardware is so powerful I see people trying to keep their 
computers going for 10 years.
