They do end up in the loft as they can't be upgraded.
The worst thing I am likely to chuck out is a desktop motherboard.
I have an old Pentium 1 laptop in my junk box with a duff battery and CD ROM drive that still boots to XT.
No chance of loading a new operating system as it does not boot from USB.
If anyone has a way of getting Linux on from a USB port that it will not boot from there might be a use for them.
