You could probably get something for it on eBay. The battery is still good
along with other salvageable parts (case, main board, etc). For example, I
have a TE with a bad battery that some day I might replace.
I sold an old laptop on eBay that had various problems. I was surprised
that someone paid $200 for it. But when you think how much they would have
had to pay for the parts that were still good (e.g. the battery), I guess
that might be a bargain. One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Just a thought.
