Donate That Old iBook to Local Kids

While some Austinites eagerly await the impending arrival of a 3G iPhone, others are merely trying to get online using whatever technology they can find -- take, for example, the kind-hearted students at McCallum High School who are trying to assemble refurbished computers for their classmates.

These 'part time students, part time environmentalists' are holding a community-wide electronics recycling drive at the school this Saturday, May 17th. They'll be accepting all electronics, including computers, televisions, CD players, cellphones, and "whatever you can think of." Items that can be refurbished will be kept; anything else will be properly recycled by Austin-based Round 2 Technologies.
