check with local church's or agencies in your community there is a pastor in our area that collects old computers and refurbishes them for kids who cannot afford to buy them he gives them to those kids.

Here in Austin, the Goodwill Industries will accept all donations of old computer or computer parts. They fix them and then sell them at their stores.

When you buy a new one from Dell, I know they have a recycling program. I imagine other computer companies would also.

When we have any computer parts that we don't want or they don't work, we just set out at the curb and they disappear fast!

I would love to know how to reuse them. My dad sells computers and is constantly "throwing out" old computers, monitors and other accessories. I did see on this site(thriftyfun): magnets made from keyboard keys. Thats a great one.
