[GreenYes] Re: Computer Recycling

[David Biddle <Dbiddle@no.address>]

Aren¹t most major OEMs set up now to be able to have you ship old computers
to them from wherever? Go to the NRC web page,
http://www.nrc-recycle.org/resources/electronics/industry.htm

You might also contact Greendisk about their TechnoTrash program. I¹d think
your county or some group of towns could go in on some sort of deal with
them. Find them here: http://www.greendisk.com/
