In the current environmentally conscious society, what to do with obsolete computer equipment becomes a major concern. Businesses have paid the price in terms of additional costs for proper disposal, regulatory fines, unfavorable publicity and even litigation when PCs turned up in landfills, third-world countries or when confidential or sensitive data was recovered from hard drives that were not properly sanitized. Some companies have been assessed heavy fines for disposal deemed environmentally unsafe" and paid again when the disposal providers they partnered with collected their payment and then dumped the equipment. Businesses must clearly understand and carefully assess disposal alternatives against the growing risk of liability.
