[ale] Please help me give away PCs.

[tew at wiencko.com]

Al Gore and the Federal Government is taxing my communications services to
death to provide state of the art PCs and internet access to schools and 
libraries all over the country.

I don't think you'll find too many public schools willing to take obsolete
equipment when they can get new stuff for free.  Now, if you were willing to
support some non-taxpayer financed charatible institutions, then I think you
might find an audience.
