It's insane that we are still facing a problem like this.

People make these things obsolete...They don't have to throw away collector's items such as fruit iMacs or stuff like that but every adult thinks their working stuff is JUNK!

You could probably infer that this isn't natural cobalt.

When you assume, you make an _ASS_ out of _U_ and _ME._

[maccollectorZ]

xD Wow, what a really bad assumption. It's funny because I don't have an iPad or an iPad mini, and I am not into hand-held devices... Just because you see that I have an Apple logo, doesn't mean I am one of those people who buys everything that Apple comes out with, because I don't... I don't have any brand new Apple devices...The last time I got a brand new device/computer for myself was in 2004. Look at my channel and you will see why I hate when people throw out old Macs...

Says the guy who has the apple logo as a profile picture. I guess you just bought an ipad mini and threw the last one you had.

Things you can do: NOT trash your working electronics that you think are "old"!

problem is - companies are making products to break - intentionally so, they will buy more products

Dude you have a point
