More Green PCs. While Cade PC's custom computers won't be winning any beauty contests, their efforts to make an environmentally responsible computer put them above many more well-known PC makers. They've selected parts based on their frugal energy consumption, with their most efficient PC consuming a paltry 45 watts. Cade also offers the option of purchasing carbon offsets to compensate for the energy used by your new PC.
To compliment their green computers, Cade strives to be an all-around green company. They recycle their broken computer parts and media at local recyclers, use environmentally-friendly office supplies, and purchase carbon offsets for their company's power usage.
I think buying "carbon offsets" are a huge scam.
Let's be real about computers.
There's no such thing as a green PC.
Is it entirely lead free? Lead is widely used in the electronics industry. We're only starting to see a gradual changeover to lead free components.
As to the rest of the components an awful lot of toxic material (and energy) goes into making them.
Of course I'm not anti-PC - I'm just asking for a little sanity in these postings.
Maybe say "this is a PC that uses very little power" and leave it at that.
If you call a PC "green" you have to expect someone to call the bluff though. ;->
