Your question:
I think the $100 laptop is a good idea -- it reduces the barrier of price from the access to technology. I do wonder though, if that barrier is reduced, how it impacts the waste stream. That is: has anyone given thought to what will happen to these laptops? Is recycling built into the thought process at this point?
