A Kaypro was my first computer.
If I am not mistaken (advance age makes me add that often) it was an 8088. I have long forgotten what the specs were however, it got me into the world of computers. The gent that suggested I purchase it was retired from IBM and sharp as a tack. When the first version of what is now known as PC Anywhere came out, he installed it on my Kaypro and could get me out of any bind from the comfort of his home. I used to be completely amazed. That one is long gone as I donated it when I replaced it with a newer model. Since then, my practice of donating has been the way. Problem now is most people needing a computer also needs someone with the time to keep them going. That is not something I have to offer so your mentioning the recycle seems like the way to go. How about a museum?
