Should be programs for asset re-use by big vendors for K-12
I don't see why IBM, HP, Dell and a few others can't take off-lease near-EOL equipment for enterprises and re-distribute it to K-12 with a limited warranty for reclamation costs and for re-use in educational environments. The servers that just ended their 4-year lifespan are far more than adequate for K-12 use, just throw a classroom of 3-year old plus PC's at it for thin clients.
