I Know around here where I live some cities have a recycle drives for computers and they do it about 2 times a year.I would clean the hard drive out of it before you get rid of it and make sure there isnt anything that you dont want anybody to know about you.
You can donate the computer but I dont know what route to take on that for tax deduction
If the processor is fast enough and you've got at least 2MB of RAM (or can expand to that) you might think about wiping the drive, installing TinyXP and hooking it up to your TV for Web viewing.
I've got old computers on both my living room and master bedroom TVs and I really enjoy being able to watch games, fights, etc. that way.
For completely wiping a drive -- either before getting rid of the computer or loading TinyXP -- burn a free copy of Ultimate Boot CD and use one or more of their disk wiping programs.
