I’ve been cleaning my apartment and found the remnants of at least 2 or 3 old PCs. Amongst the findings is a fairly new video card that I don’t know what to do with. Efforts to sell it to friends have failed, and I really don’t want the hassle of selling to a stranger.

Talking with Ich about it, we both decided it would be cool to setup a Moodle hardware (& software?) donation system. I have a feeling that amongst all Moodlers, we have several complete PCs worth of good condition parts that are not being used right now.

Possible ideas:
- Compile the fragments and build fully working PCs
- Keep them as parts
- Sell the oldest parts and add the funds to the Moodle account to be used for other things

- people are welcome to upgrade whatever they want, donating their old equipment
- keep them as parts for emergency situations, person X’s computer just died, we replace the failed parts
- people donate with their own stipulations as to what is to be done with the donation
- donate full PCs to those without one at all
- use the full PCs at Moodle gatherings etc

Possible problems:
- multiple people want a specific part (possible solution: keep the exact parts list hidden, people post what they want/need and we see if we have it in stock)
- where to keep the stockpile of parts, depending on how popular this is, it could be a large closet full of used computer parts

I will edit this post as we get a better idea of what we want to do.
