Sony's new recycling program

Quote:
Sony wants its stuff back – but only if you’re done with it. Sony Electronics announced a new national recycling program for consumer electronics, called the Sony Take Back Recycling Program, which allows consumers to recycle all Sony-branded products for no fee at 75 Waste Management (WM) Recycle America eCycling drop-off centers throughout the U.S (PDF).

The program also allows consumers to recycle other manufacturers' consumer electronics products at market prices, and may include a recycling fee for some types of materials.

A smart owner would be wise to do it while they are still now. You avoid a tremendous number of problems that way.

I have 41 Sony VAIO hulls in my storeroom. Most are totally dead. No lights.
When a Sony fails, it fails. You have an extremely difficult time getting parts or help or a soft heart. Only eMachines and Packard Bells are lower in how they treat their customers and repair technicians.
But people are charmed by the once famous Sony name, and Sony still makes the best CRT and Flat Panel monitors, tape recorders, LCD TV's, medical test components, and such. They are just too broke to do things right anymore. Computers have never been one of them.
