Need the exact make and mode of the computer and any peripherals (VDU? Printer? Scanner?). The peripherals are more interesting than the processor.

There is often a market for companies who stubbornly refuse to upgrade and insist on maintaining old kit. There is a definite market for discontinued VDUs, discontinued keyboards, discontinued printers and discontinued scanners.

If the system cabinet is discontinued and without a modern substitute then there may be a market. Otherwise there is no real market for old computers bar the scrap metal value. If it's under 10 years-old the memory cards are saleable.
