Hi Craig,

I know of two:

OTX West: http://www.otxwest.org/ You can also read about my visit there (as well as see some pictures of the warehouse) here: http://ctcvista.org/node/1163 It?s a great organization.

You might also check out FreeGeek: http://freegeek.org/

There are others out there ? you might look up and contact Phil Shapiro ? he?s an educator, technology and access activist who has a tendency to inspire others about the possibilities for technology: http://tinyurl.com/3d87jl

>>Does anyone know of nonprofits anywhere in the country that have partnered with for-profit companies to collect and/or distribute computers donated from said for-profit company? For example, all PC's that are being replaced from ABC for-profit after their 3-5 year life-cycle are wiped clean and then donated to XYZ nonprofit?>>
