Greenpeace has released their first e-waste scorecard, ranking electronics companies on their use of "toxic chemicals and electronic waste."

Great Posting!

    David, thanks for posting this.  I only wish  that Greenpeace would go further and look at various component manufacturers.  (My latest computer was built for me, but I go to select the components, so the brand name is...... um, none).

Now I have a comeback for when all the smug Mac afficionados give me a hard time for buying a Dell.
