				Where all those obsolete computers go...
			 
			
			I've been at two jobs working with technology, and I've seen schools and corporations with mountains of broken and/or obsolete equipment.  They pay people to haul it off, supposedly to be recycled or landfilled somehow.  Well, I've just found where all that material actually went, and it is very depressing. Digital Junkyard |
