Sometimes I wonder just how much of an environmentalist I really am. It was during some of the discussion of week 3 in which the topic was on the disposable nature of computers that got me thinking. I'm slowly trying to recycle more in my life and it's my goal to get a compost going. The disposable nature of our modern society disturbs me more and more. So my question is why am I OK with buying a new computer about every 5 years - sometimes less? Anyway, that's been my track record for the last 15 years or so.
Maybe it's the program ending but I find myself looking ahead to the future of technology and my prediction/hope is that we're going to see longer and longer life spans of computers and hardware.
