Lost original post in a 'delete' frenzy...
but the question was asked.. "what do you do with all those old PC's?"

1.)  sell them to students who have NO computer at home for cheap...and 
give them a knoppix Cd =)

2.)  find a school who doesn't mind paying the electric bill but doesn't 
want to buy lots of software either.

3.)  set-up a k12ltsp environment at your local Boys/Girls Club...

4.)  offer them to an elementary school who might not have a good IT budget

5.)  local non-for-profit private schools might have a use for them

Just options... =)
I'm giving away 15" monitors ... got about 25 on the shelf right now.
and selling 17" monitors for max $40 depending on condition $20...
(better than paying a $10 disposal fee per monitor)

just some ideas...
