Concept:
Instead of people buying electric space heaters, they could buy outdated computers for a similar price, then set them up running things like prime95 or folding at home. The power consumed would be the same, as would the heat generated, but they'd be keeping electronics out of the land fill, and running research calculations at the same time!
