Comment We already have curbside PC recycling in Boston (Score 1) 162
It works like this:
1. Leave monitor/PC by curb for trash pickup.
2. Trash pickup won't take them (they're supposed to be dropped off at DPW)
3. PC/monitor gets kicked around by local kids for several weeks.
4. Broken glass causes flat tire or injury. Lead & cadmium from monitor leaches into soil.
5. Street sweeping eventually picks up the broken little bits.
I see this about once a month in my neighborhood. I admire Dell for trying to provide a solution, but I don't think it's easy enough for the teeming masses.
