I hope it's not too late. Please, for the love of all things sacred...don't
ever scrap/recycle vintage computer gear. Yes, I admit some of it really is
worthless (like old RS-232 cables) but vintage computers like Amiga's, PET's,
VIC-20's, etc. are
dropping off the planet.
Of course, selling it could be the most advantageous for you in that you could
earn a profit.
If you don't want the hassle of selling it, then by all means donate it. Here
in the US, Goodwill is a TERRIBLE place to donate old computers because they
deem them worthless and send them off to recycle.
You could always list them on CL for free pickup or even sell them on eBay for
$1 with local pickup only.
Anyway, just my suggestion.
