The computer I am currently using was a "dumpster dive" in 2001. It was 1-2 y/o back then. My late hubby "rescuced" it , intstalled a new hard drive ($30) and programmer SIL has updated the operating system a couple times.

It still works pretty good.

Last time my work cleaned out the files they put the file folders & pentaflex dividers in a BIG box in the lunch room. Took nearly a week but the stuff all found new homes.

Another thing we have BUNCHES of regularly is 1 lb, 5 lb and 25 lb empty heavy duty plastic containers. I have trouble finding new homes for these except my own adult kids and they generally do not want the 1 lb. I brought some home last week & will use to store rice, lentils & dry beans.
