At my repair/used electronics/retro company i get free stuff due to this sometimes

Customer: “you recycle electronics right?”

Me: “yes kinda depends” please dont be a giant Projection tv oh god please dont let it be one

Customer: 'i have this alienware junk and a monitor" interest piqued and slightly worried

Me: “you dont want to repair the pc we might be able to? And what type of monitor?” please please say yes

Customer: “no its total explective junk i just wanna recycle it and its a small flat one” damn no easy money but yay no giant TV

Me: “okay yeah sure ill take them thank you for ethically recycling” goes to put items in the recycle pile thinks to self wait i havent checked to see if it is actually junk… wipe drive installs windows yay it works! New drive in old drive destroyed

Me: “yay nearly free junk! … in the lan corner it goes” reduce reuse and recycle

I have no idea what was wrong with the alienware im guessing it was a driver issue.

Usually the recycle people bring in a giant projection tv and i wanna cry. Yay being ethical. At least we get free crap once a month.
