Donate it, to a thrift store, a homeless shelter, school, or anyplace else that
will give you a charitable donation receipt for it. Or sell it on ebay,
Craigslist, or NextDoor. Definitely don't just recycle it .

They have made one & I got it. It only cost $7.00 for one of
the nice ones. However, when I did hook the Acer up to my nice, new gaming
desktop, I learned - after it happened - that if screen resolution changes, the
Acer monitor lost signal and would NOT recover.
Checking, I learned that this is a known problem with this era
of Acer monitors. So - new monitor thru Amazon was here the next day & cost
less than $100. And thus, I have a fresh-from-box, but still made in 2015 Acer
monitor I would rather not toss it into the tech recycling bin.

Subject: [Basfa] free monitor
Could anyone use an 18" Acer monitor with a vga connector from 2015?
I got it, intending to replace an older monitor - which then stubbornly
continued working for the next 7 years.
I just got a new desktop & unboxed the Acer ... learning that the new
desktop uses hdmi & the Acer is only VGA. I got a -new- monitor for the
desktop & want to see if the Acer could be of use to anyone before just
discarding it.
I'm in Campbell so I hope if it can be of use, you can come pick it up.
