Where to scavenge/recycle computers

[boblothrope.livejournal.com]

Anyone know a place in the area where people can recycle and scavenge computers and parts?

I used to get parts from the computer recycling bin at the Cambridge DPW's Recycling Center, but recently they started enforcing their rule against taking anything from the electronics bins.

Have you seen this website (http://www.earthwormrecycling.org/electronics.html)? They might be willing to scrap you some parts.

Also, it seems that old moniters/tv's may have CRTs - so they may contain trace amounts of lead, and it's considered hazardous waste. Maybe that's why there's no encouraged dumpster diving in various bins.
