My current computer is worth $506...
the computer I'd actually be willing to give up "has no value", but if I'm willing to pay to ship it, they'd recycle it for me. How nice of them.

$651.30 for my Dell lappy . . . about a year and a half old . . . was about $2,000 new . . . eh . . . if Dell were doing this and I could stack with one of the 30% off coupons or so . . . I'd probably be willing to trade in and upgrade

$390 bucks here. The top ranges for some of the options are so low! I exceed the max ram option, the max hard drive option, and the max monitor option...
Interesting... they prefer certain brands. Compaq, Gateway, HP brands will fetch a few more dollars ($13-16) for the same config. Dell is equivalent to a generic home-built machine... I wonder how they come up with that logic...
Estimated Trade-in Value: $42.42 (plus a Prepaid shipping label)
