Just found my old Macbook Pro 3.1 (15 inch, 2.4/2.2GHz) that's been sitting around in storage. Surprisingly, it still works, though the screen is damaged by fungus. Can still see the screen, but lots of specks (picture below). Battery was bloated and thrown out years ago, currently running direct on the charger

I'm not that interested in using Mac's as I'm a PC Desktop user. However, other than chucking this into the bin, can it still fetch something on Carousell, or perhaps anyplace willing to do a trade in for a new device? Any lobang? :D

You can recycle it - some places have special bins. I know Great World” city has .... and electrical stores like courts Tampines

Thanks. Have seen a number of ads on Carousel that takes in old laptops, even broken ones. Will see how much I can get for it:)
