I'll take 4 to 6 of them off your hands, if any are still up for grabs.

So how does one arrange going to grab some. Only looking for 3-4, but If I have to take a whole box I guess I can just do that too

How about contacting churches or schools (especially private) to see if they could use them



funny enough, Beggars can't be choosers, is false..

most of these were mounted so they don't have stands so no one wants them..

there are also approximately 10 boxes of 15

I usually have the same mindset but I think the financial math works out in favor of uniformity across the organization.

Guess that's why I wasn't a business major...

(the real answer here is to try and change the corporate mentality of having to discard this many devices simply because they want parity in their work spaces.

Service desk was spending more time trying to learn how different brands of monitors worked across the globe..The more cost efficient move was to simply future proof, partner with Dell, and roll out

I get your ideas, and this came from well above me, but happy users make the least noise

Fair enough. As I said, I wasn't a business major.

Pack them into a cargo container and ship them to China without a return address.

Nothing too exciting. I have a want for displays in environments that are kind of hostile. Inside (and maybe outside) my box trailer. Mobile surveillance tower displays. Informational signage in a non-climate-controlled shop. Nothing critical or necessary, but nice-to-haves if the price is right and I don't care if they break and need to be replaced from the stash.

And I have space to warehouse them indefinitely so no biggie there.

I’m about to have 250 to dispose of next week. We usually load them up and drop them off at CACRC.

That sounds suspiciously like what a spook would say…
