Why is apple abandoning EPEAT?
Today I read that Apple is abandoning the registration of its products with EPEAT.

Apparently the construction of the new MacBook Pro with retina display is not easy to recycle because everything is fused or glued together. Personally, that would be reason enough for me not to buy it. But why are they abandoning environmental registration for all their products? I think Mr. Jobs is turning over in his grave. This is going to be a problem for educators, schools, and others who use this as a bench mark of enviromental impact.
As a long time Apple user this is sad day.
I hope Tim gets Apple's act together and solves this problem.
