Apple Doing Better With Greenpeace
Posted by Vincent Ferrari in "Apple Talk" @ 11:00 AM
"HP, Lenovo, and Dell haven't fared too badly in some of Greenpeace's previous e-waste reports, but it looks like three companies have fallen well short of the organization's expectations this time around, with each getting called out for failing to live up to their promises."
Not that anyone cares (or should) about what Greenpeace has to say about anything, but Apple's a frequent target of their ire (they went so far as to disrupt Macworld San Francisco last year with their stupid stunts) and it seems like they have much bigger fish to fry now. While Apple isn't exactly in the green, Dell, Lenovo, HP, and Acer are all worse and are all selling more units than Apple will ever sell in any market, so maybe Apple goes off their radar for a bit and they start focusing on the bigger guys who will, justifiably, ignore them.
