I work at the U, so I could probably just dump them off there somewhere -- they have to get rid of tons of old stuff all the time. I remember we had a discussion once about how to get rid of monitors, but I just noticed that a neighbor (here in Minneapolis) left a TV out on recycling day and they put a note on it saying that they'd be back to pick it up. Doesn't that mean that we can get put our monitors out on recycling day and have them picked up? I would think so. Laser printers, too?
