give them to people in need.
break all of them so its not hard to fix, just slightly broken, so it would be an inconvenience to fix all of them, then give them all to an elementary school…
Install Linux on them then give them to people in need.
Shred them, recover the precious minerals and sell that. The rest of is garbage.

Build a bridge out of them!
Fix the ones ya can with the ones ya can’t. Could still be used for home server or security system or something static that doesn’t require much processing power.

Donate to Local library, you’ll make some kids day.
Blow them up
Send me a WiFi card from one of them (only if it’s intel or Broadcom though)

Wire them together and do a ultra chromebook
If you can hook all of their systems up together, you could basically have a home server

Donate them to a nursing home. Clean them up make them all work. Become the IT guy. Notice all the cuties working there.
Create a pyramid of them, then make a huge slingshot and sling tennis balls soaked in gasoline, light them on fire and play some angry birds
sell them for 20$ each
in theory you could wire them up and ddos someone, in theory of course
If you’re near NC I’ll take one off your hands to use as a portable Linux box

Find a sheet metal shop with a hydraulic press.
Give them to less fortunate children, kids break everything anyway so old ones are a perfect come up for struggling family’s. I know my 10 year old would love one.
