So I take your computer off you, charge you for this service then sell your reclaimed product to someone else. Where is the incentive for me to recycle?

Who in thier right mind? 

Seriously, is dell aiming to charge small businesses to recycle their used computer crap? anything to make a buck... Michael must be looking for ways to recover some of the coin he lost when his bean counters started stroking the numbers...

since when did you ever walk in to a recycling center, hand the guy a sack of aluminum cans, only to hear, ok mister, that'll be $6.37, are you paying cash or using credit/debit?

the alternative is just to throw the shit in the trash...

Re: 35.6 million kilograms 

Dunno about grapefruit, but at 35.6 Gg it is nearly three dozen horses.

More seriously, why didn't anyone quote this figure in tonnes?
