Default Throwing out old computer

Best to toss it after that, Charities do not want it. I have a win 95
machine and a Win98 - 600mhz chine and no one will take.

Open up the case and remove the hard drive. Close case and replace
screws.
Place hard drive on hard surface (outside is best). Put on your safety
glasses and grab your 20 lb sledge hammer. Now wack the daylights out of
it
so nothing is left. That is the best way. You can try a scrubber, but
is
your data really gone? Do you really want to take the chance? I
wouldn't.
Now donate your old computer to a good cause and get a write off for this
years taxes.
