I get asked this a lot so I thought I'd post it here to remember:
Places Within Saskatchewan to Take Used/Old Computers:
Try Computers for Kids - wil take 400Mhz computers or faster, and they claim to recycle older equipment. Call 975-3955.
or Computers for Schools (run by the SaskTel Pioneers) - working Pentium III (or better) - call 931-5625.
The province in theory will have a computer (and peripherals) recycling program in place this year, probably in the fall. It will expand in time to cover other electronics (ex. TVs will be added in 2007), so if you have storage space for old stuff, please try to hang on to it a little longer.

I dropped off some computers to "Computers for Schools" here in Regina last spring and many were less than Pentium IIs. They told me they would take anything and everything (printers, etc.), and if they couldn't use it or make it work, they would make sure it was recycled. Do you know if the Pentium III thing is a new policy or did I make a mistake?
