   It's that time again. Do you have anything old with batteries in? digital watches, calculators, newtons palms ipaqs multimeters old macs old PCs iMacs and performas and quadras and more?

   Go give the collection a look over to make sure there are no batteries sitting in them to leak and nuke the logic boards.

     The picture shows a lithium battery. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that those don't leak.
