In my efforts to clear out 'stuff' I've come across three of these which I used in a professional capacity. All in excellent working order still.

Now that I am long retired I don't need them, however I can't think if they are going to be useful to anyone in these days of smartphones, however am reluctant to just bin them.
Are there any places or organisations which could benefit from them?

    OK, in the bin they go. Much as I expected. 
  • Currys may still have their "£5 for anything that uses electricity" recycling promo running, if there's a store that's convenient.

    These aren’t likely to work on a modern PC as they have 32bit software and drivers*. The resolution is also at the lower end. 

    *They won’t work at all on Windows 11. They might work on a 32bit version of Windows 10 but that reaches end of support in a couple of months.

    That decides things.  Thanks.
