I have two defunct computers, one of which is a laptop, the other a desktop. They both crashed before I could retrieve any important info, and no, I did not back them up. Honestly there isn't anything I am missing, but stuff I'd rather not leave on (financial stuff, family pics).
Both are old and I don't see that they would serve me any purpose to keep them and attempt to have them repaired. We currently have two brand new lap tops in the house.
But what to do with them?
if they are recyclable, or can be donated, whatever, I'd be find doing that. But I don't want any personal info in them. What do I remove before donating or recycling?
Also, how long are video monitors usually good for? The desktop monitor is perfectly fine, just not sure about future compatibility issues. I imagine we will get DD a computer at some point in the future, so should I save the monitor, or donate it with the computer?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
