So while clearing my passed aunt’s apartment I found this laptop. It’s old (2013), but new and apparently untouched since the purchase.

I wonder if it might be worth anything these days or should I just donate it somewhere. It’s runs obsolete Win 8, but I can always wipe the drive.

Here are the specs:

Lenovo G585
Model name: 20137
CPU: AMD E1-1200 1.4G
RAM: 4G
HDD: 500 GB
LAN: 10M/100M
ODD: DVDRW
Display: 15.6’’ HD LED
Battery: 8 cell
OS: Win8 MM 64-bit
Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 7310

Again, I’m aware it’s old; it’s just the virgin state that got me thinking. Thanks!
 
Solution
If you can replace the HDD with an SSD, it could make a good backup computer just in case.

You can upgrade from Win8 to Win8.1 for free.
