Q. What do you do with hardware if you upgrade or don't want it anymore? Do you throw it in the garbage?

A. No, please don't throw it in the garbage. Computer components contain dangerous chemicals like; lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium which cause caner, high blood pressure, nerve and brain damage. Thankfully many companies are being responsible and removing some of these chemicals from their products. Also, checkout these websites: http://www.epa.org, http://www.epa.gov & http://www.ec.gc.ca

  • #24 - Question/Answer: How to contact me with a question

  • can u please do a antec twelve hundred case review

  • I need to do a Q&A video on this! I contacted Antec about reviewing the twelve hundred case, but they haven't sent one yet. So until they send one I can't review it.

  • Last night I ripped apart an old gateway. Took out the hard drive, CD burner, and mobo...which is mounted on my wall... and threw the case in the recycling...not sure If the city will take it though.

  • The city probably won't, but a junk collector might ;)
