      I mean, work in a tech field and have good relations with people who manage hardware, you’ll get to keep some that goes to garbage then, you’ll be surprised how much fairly recent hardware is thrown out by companies

        I already do, and most hardware in the office are macbooks, toshibas, and dells. Also, it’s no longer as common for companies to allow employees to buy/adopt old hardware and they choose to recycle instead.
