Do they distribute them to be used again or sell them for scrap? That's 
what a lot of organizations do. There's a lot of money in computer scrap 
now days. Gold and magnetic materials. Especially true if you can obtain 
a lot of computers and sell in bulk. Dell partners with organizations 
that take in used computers. Helps to get rid of perfectly good stuff 
they won't have to compete with.
