WOW. Just a huge shout out to A+ Computers Olympia who donated a MASSIVE amount of "older" Chromebooks to the Computer Upcycle Project.
I'll be going through these, cleaning and upgrading what can be done and then working on getting them into the hands of people who need them.
This might look like a crazy amount of laptops, but honestly, its the tip of the iceburg of machines that get thrown away... ever... single... day...

Aaaaaa :neocat_sob: I wish I could get my hands on these things which are thrown out, they are very useful and with hoardes of them like this, i could deploy some awesome projects and get computers in the hands of many people :neocat_melt_sob_heart: :neocat_cry_loud:
