Q: Hey Apple, is there a program that you have for trading in laptops for an upgrade program like you have with the phones? Just thinking that it would be a way for you to meet requirements of the legislation that requires you to recycle your components.
With state and federal legislation requiring the tech industry to recycle a significant portion of its products, I think you should consider a trade in/upgrade program to motivate mac users to engage in that process with you. It could be a huge value as a community initiative to recycle devises into less-economically stable schools and community centers. Think of all the affluent independent schools that with this ncentive could afford to upgrade their devices and then Apple could donate the refurbished machines or sell them at a reduced cost to other schools...The question really is, why aren't you doing this already???
