I've almost got all the rehabilitate-able computers fixed up. They're in a large pile in the computer lab. 2 or 3 have issues that I need something new to fix. Some of the dust spray stuff would be good to have because some of them tend to overheat. It ended up that 75% of the machines were almost working or had a bad motherboard and so could be discarded immediately.

I've started deleting the separate "Data" partition that the machines are set up with by default and extending the C: partition to cover the whole drive. I think that this helps the computers performance-wise, since I notice that the machines that are running out of space on C: tend to be very, very slow. I've been using this program, that lets you resize the partition without having to boot from a flash drive: <a href="http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html">http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html</a>.

There's a Dell laptop in the back that is probably in working order (the label says the 3 year warranty expired in 2008), but I can't find a power cable for it. I don't know where there would be any lying around.
