Apple Recycling Old Macs for Free

charleste writes "CNN is reporting that Apple is going to recycle Macs for free. I wonder if this means they will actually recycle them in Cupertino, or sent overseas to be dumped as many 'recycled' computers do, or if they will actually mine them. And does this make the MacQuarium obsolete?"

    In other news, I will now recycle ANY piece of computer equipment for free. Simply get the device to me (in working order) and I will disassemble, dismember, shoot, melt, sell or attack it with a cowbell.

    'I want a computer factory that takes raw beach sand in one end and outputs fully assembled Macs from just that raw material.'

    Great, so there goes another ecologically important wildlife habitat and economically important tourism attraction! :)
