Computer guilt

OK, I just got a guilt trip from my mother because I threw out my old computer instead of donating it. Like I wasn't feeling bad enough. In case anyone else is critical, here's the thing, OK?

The computer was ancient (in computer terms). It was a Pentium MMX, with a broken CD-ROM drive and I was removing the hard drives. So it wasn't worth anything, even as a donation -- nobody would take it. And it wasn't like there was Pentium Rescue I could call to rehome the thing. So lay off, OK?
