IBM回收废旧电脑

2026-05-13
Vast glut of obsolete computer equipment was all but inevitable in an era in which a common cliche is that your new computer is outdated by the time you get it home.

  Now IBM Corp., one of the world's biggest computer makers, hopes to provide relief to a problem some environmentalists see as one of the biggest solid waste issues to emerge in decades.

  glut: 供应过剩;充斥cliche:陈词滥调, 铅版;电脑更新的太快了,你还没有把它抱回家它就已经过时了,这可绝不是危言耸听哦。

  Armonk, N.Y.-based IBM today is kicking off a program aimed specifically at individual consumers and small business owners, two sizable groups of computer users that up til now have struggled to find ways to rid themselves of unwanted computer hardware.

  For a fee of $29.99, IBM will accept all manner of PC parts through its IBM PC Recycling Service. The fee includes shipping costs, so consumers need only to box the equipment and send it via United Parcel Service to Envirocycle, a Hallstead, Pa., recycling firm. Consumers can sign up for IBM's program at the time of purchase or by contacting IBM.

  kick off:开球,发起运动等;在IBM公司这次发起的回收废旧电脑运动中,你只需花费29.99美元。
