Just as with most computer stuff, the older they are, the better they were (kinda like me too, really, the older I get, the better I Was ; )

Lifting them up 30 feet high and letting them go does wonders for the.... SPent 4 hours and have 6 pounds of motors and maybe lcd, dvd tuner green board. Older the better I assume. Many have that memory board that would easily be tele! Best feeling was shipping at light iron. Until realized there is a whole other end to make money with printers in. Ive heard parts can be hot. Next time your at your doctors or a big modern office, Look around and see.... oh all your old office printers that you have at the shop are still being used! Printers or atleast laser office have a much much longer usage period. So different than anything else in ewaste. THey just keep printing and printing. Job does not require tons of processing. Co processor does this stuff easy.
