A new business has popped up in Vancouver. If you don’t have a computer, you can volunteer time for at FREE GEEK — Community Technology Centre on West 2nd off Main, help build computers and work towards getting your own computer.
Great idea – you actually get to build a computer – you gain knowledge and you get to go home with a shiny new PC (assembled from donated parts).

Their pitch: “Can’t afford a computer? Or want to donate old computer equipment? Make your community a better place by helping out!”

Finally, a place that I can dump all my old components and put them to good use!
