I don't know of anyone in north atlanta, but someone responded to a 
previous post (by you :) ) here's the link:

I've also used Multi-User Solutions, again they are not in north atlanta:

As for recycling, you just missed a great opportunity with both Cobb 
County and Atlanta offering free drop off of such hardware.  Most shops 
will charge you a fee to get rid of a monitor.  Keep your eye open for 
other such announcements.

And remember, you can't chunk it into a landfill or your garbage.  It's 
against the law, not to mention, very bad for our environment.

Good luck Chris and let us know what you decide to do and what luck you 
have.
