I too have an O2 along with some SGI flat panel screens, which was amazing tech in the world of CRT displays of yesteryear.

I've been trying to donate this stuff to local museums for a while but sadly, none seem interested. The O2 still boots without any issues, and at least one of the screens work. Shame to just throw away.

Craigslist or fb marketplace for $200 and it will be gone. Don't make it free. Compromise to $100 for the right buyer.

I'm probably just nostalgic, but to me this hardware is a piece of history that's mostly forgotten or overlooked by anyone who wasn't working in IT at the time. That's why I've been trying to get museums to take it, because my hope would be they'd do something educational with the hardware. Alas, selling is indeed probably my only recourse if I don't want these things to end up on the heap (right away.)
