How to dispose my old motherboard?

[many a good man]

Can I just toss it into the trash along with the old case? Is it toxic? Should I take it some place special or not worry about it?

1. Toxic

Heavy metals are used in circuitry. Check your city/county recycling department's website--they'll have information on where to take it.
