Free Geek

On the last day of OSCON, I took a trip with Phil and others down to Free Geek, a non-profit organization providing free computers and education to those in need through the reuse and recycling of old computers. And seriously, what a warehouse of old computers it was. It was a fascinating tour, where they basically either reuse or recycle almost everything out of your typical desktop computer – then sell any extra bits and bobs in thrift store. There was crap everywhere, just amazing what useful and profitable crap it can be with a bit of work!
