The percentage of electronics at the end of their lives which were recycled.
The EPA found that the percentage remained consistent from 1999-2005. Even as recycling rates went up, the amount of electronics reaching end of life outpaced the increase, leaving the figure static. (source: EPA, July 2008)

Windows XP with silver theme?
Guess .. get with the times!
But Aero uses more energy!
Woot, go Firefox! Thats the way to test it there.
I don't like Vista but the Vista Aero theme would show off the quality much more than the XP Silver Theme.
Man I bet PT Barnum loves all of these Green products, lol
yeah products competing in energy efficiency is a circus sideshow, lol.
What about Bailey?
Between this display and an Atom CPU Eee Box, that's a pretty power effect desktop.
22.3 Watts at peak CPU usage Eee Box
19.4 Watts for this display
41.7 Watts total (not counting speakers)
Nice!
That's less wattage than a light bulb!
...then hook it up to a 1000 watt speaker system.
You smell.
No thanks, I'm sticking with my Samsung T220 even if it kills the planet a little faster it does it with style.
It's a Green Screen! Haha, get it!?
...sorry guys, I couldn't help it.
Yeah but can you pick this monitor up for $180? If we run this thing 210 hours a day and save 20 watts per hour for 365 day, we would only save $7.30 a year at 10 cents per kwh
where do you live that has 210 hours in a day?...
19.4/110 = .17A
?
erm...
p=I V
so surely its 110/19.4 = 5.6... A ?
or am i Horribly mistaken? its been a while...
I = V/R
@DChen
Yes you are mistaken, the formula is correct but the rearrange was wrong.
rv is right..
*hangs head in shames*
*cues sad music from the increidble hulk...*
*walks off into the sunset*
oops, posted wrong formula. resistance doesnt help at all in this case. sorry
when the iphone gets a 22 inch screen that doubles as a monitor, call me.
otherwise SHUT UP!
hmm... 22" on a iphone...
not really a phone then is it...
more a HUGE tablet thats both impractical yet stylish...
so more an imac for the man with MC Hammer pants...
for some reason that picture makes the monitor look huge to me -- almost like an LCD TV
DChen wins the award for first person to ever imply a practical purpose for MC Hammer pants.
strop!
hammer time
music hits me. so hard.
Makes me say
OH MY LORD
wow... i never even realized what a shoddy rhyme that was.. hard and lord? good lord. oh well, at least he so cleverly stole the music from Rick James (bitch).
They all stole it from the king of the rap scene, Vanilla Ice.
What a guy.
DAMNIT beat me to it! I was going to reply to the first post at the top of the page just so it would get read, but then I decided to be a more mature commenter and scroll down hoping nobody else already took my comment!
iPhone sips man juice?
I bought this model for $280 a week ago in Korea.
At least in Korea, W2252TE models with silver plastic parts at the bottom (as you see in the picture above) are not for retail.
"Officially", It's available only for local pc shops to be bundles with pc's.
There are also W2252TE with white plastic parts, for retail.
But surprisingly, those are tagged $100 higher, making it $380.
Fade
I spend more per month of publicly educating other peoples' kids than I do on my own household electricity. As such, I do not have to think 'green' when only 55% of the county students finish, and only 70% finish period.
At least I get a better lifecycle with energy-consumer electronics. I guess you get what you do not pay for.
@ phanbuoy
I think maybe Hammer tweaks it to sound more like "Oh my Lard"? Thats what I remember singing...then I would stop and wonder how a man who moves around on stage so much could be fat.
