Thank you for your tips. This is so so important during these dark times, i too am very concerned about the state of the planet.

I think consumer awareness could be the first step in the right direction, from there we might influence governments and regulation who in turn should guide corporate. i imagine that is how it must work.

best regards

Luke

each Laptop should Take 1 and a half hours to complete provided there are no hardware issues. so $300.00 would be the total cost @ $25.00 per hour.
you can contact me by phone at xxx-xxx-xxx ask for Doug. thank you.
