Where Computers Go to Die

As More People Upgrade, Recycling Becomes a Concern; Shredding Your Hard Drive
Getting rid of an old computer is a predicament that people face when their systems slow down or break down.

That's especially true now as more users decide to buy computers running Microsoft's recently released Windows Vista operating system. Apple Inc.'s campaign encouraging users to switch to its platform from Windows has also contributed to PCs piling up in basement corners.



But where should all this old equipment go? And what happens once it is taken away? How can you be sure that your private data aren't being exposed? And will being a tree hugger turn out to be too costly?



If you're looking to recycle your old system -- monitor, computer tower and printer -- you might think the only option is to search for a local drop-off spot. But surprisingly, most big-name computer manufacturers offer their own recycling programs, some of which come right to your door.

Each company has its own methods, which makes the process more confusing for consumers. Some take old computers away, but charge you around $30 for the shipping and handling. Others will reward you for buying one of their systems by offering to remove your old system free. Below, you'll find some general guidelines for getting your computer out of your house.
Which company does what?

Dell Inc. offers home pickup of any old Dell equipment anytime, free. It will also pick up any brand of computer or printer free with the purchase of a new Dell PC or printer. Details can be found at www.dell.com/recycling.



Hewlett-Packard Co.'s recycling procedures are a bit more complicated. At anytime, the company offers to pick up and recycle your old equipment, regardless of brand, but charges $13 to $34 per product for shipping and handling. You will be compensated for each product with a $30 to $50 coupon to be used at www.hpshopping.com, where you can buy products from H-P. Recycling details for H-P can be found at www.hp.com/recycle.

Lenovo's ThinkPlus Recycling Service offers prepaid shipping labels for $30 each to be used for sending any manufacturer's old system, monitor, printer and peripherals to Lenovo for recycling or refurbishment. Lenovo doesn't offer a home pick-up service. Once received, Lenovo uses a designated center to recycle your materials and sends reusable equipment to Gifts In Kind International, a charity specializing in product philanthropy.

Apple is different still. Like Lenovo, it doesn't offer home pick-up but will receive all brands so long as you buy a $30 shipping label from the company's Web site. With the purchase of any new Mac through Apple's Web site or at one of its retail stores, you'll receive an email with instructions and shipping codes for up to two prepaid boxes. These can be used for shipping any old equipment, regardless of manufacturer, to Apple for recycling. Details can be found at: http://www.apple.com/environment/recycling/program.



Apple's retail stores will accept all manufacturers' rechargeable batteries as part of a program run by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corp., a nonprofit organization. These stores also accept unwanted iPods for recycling and take 10% off the purchase of a new iPod in exchange for your old one.



What about my data?



When recycling, almost all companies vow to mechanically shred your hard drive. But they also suggest that you take responsibility for your data and delete them to be safe.



Various software programs let you clear out your hard disk on your own. Symantec's Wipe Info in Norton Utilities and System Works (http://symantec.com will help on Windows PCs and Macs. Webroot Software Inc.'s Window Washer (http://www.webroot.com) is another option for Windows, and Jiiva Inc.'s SuperScrubber (http://www.jiiva.com) is an alternative for Macs. I haven't tested these programs, and there are many others that do the same thing.



What happens to my computer?



Generally speaking, after your computer is sent to a recycling plant, it is disassembled and its materials are separated, melted down and reused. H-P, which has been recycling computers since 1987, says it will have collected and recycled one billion pounds of used products by the end of this year. The company uses some materials over again in its own products, such as plastics that are melted down, combined with plastics from recycled water bottles and used to make one of H-P's scanners.



Recycling alternatives



Plenty of other groups, such as the National Cristina Foundation (http://www.cristina.org) and Share the Technology (http://sharetechnology.org) specialize in distributing reusable computers to people or organizations in need of computers.



For the most part, the best systems for reuse are those that are less than five years old. A good rule of thumb is to donate your computer as soon as possible, so you don't forget about it before it becomes outdated.



Microsoft specializes in PC refurbishment by partnering with TechSoup, a tech nonprofit, and by labeling groups as Microsoft Authorized Refurbishers. These groups, which are located around the world, receive low-cost software licenses so they can install Windows and Office programs on refurbished computers for distribution to low-income families, nonprofit and educational institutions. In the U.S. alone, over 100,000 licenses have been supplied to 400 such groups. A list of them can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/mar.



With Earth Day coming on April 22nd and "going green" becoming a fashionable proclamation, you're sure to find more and more options for recycling your computer or sending it away to someone who can refurbish it. One way or another, your old computer can be used for much more than gathering dust in a basement corner.

Computer Crime

A computer crime is generally defined as one that involves the use of computers and software for illegal purposes. This doesn’t mean that all the crimes are new types of crime. On the contrary, many of these crimes, such as embezzlement of funds, the alteration of records, theft, vandalism, sabotage, and terrorism, can be committed without a computer. But with a computer, these offenses can be carried out more quickly and with less chance that the person responsible for the crime will be discovered.

Computer crimes are on the rise and have been for the last twelve years. Just how much these computer crimes cost the American public is in dispute, but estimates range from ?$3 billion to ?$5 billion annually. Even the FBI, which attempts to keep track of the growth or decline of all kinds of crimes, is unable to say precisely how large a loss is involved; however, it estimates that the average take from a company hit by computer crime is ?$600,000. A number of reasons are given for the increase in computer crime: (A) more computers in use and, thus, more people who are familiar with basic computer operation; (B) more computers tied together in satellite and other data—transmission networks; and (C) the easy access of microcomputers to huge mainframe data bases.


The Criminal

Movies and newspaper stories might lead us to believe that most computer crimes are committed by teenage “hackers”—brilliant and basically good children who let their imagination and technical genius get them into trouble. But a realistic look at the crimes reveals that the offender is likely to be an employee of the firm against which the crime has been committed, i.e., an “insider”.

Difficulty of Detection and Prevention

Given the kind of person who commits a computer crime and the environment in which the crime occurs, it is often difficult to detect who the criminal is. First of all, the crime may be so complex that months or years go by before anyone discovers it.

Second, once the crime has been revealed, it is not easy to find a clear trail of evidence that leads back to the guilty party. After all, looking for “weapons” or fingerprints does not occur as it might in the investigation of more conventional crimes.

Third, there are usually no witnesses to the computer crime, even though it may be taking place in a room filled with people. Who is to say if the person at the next terminal, calmly keying in data, is doing the company’s work or committing a criminal act?

Fourth, not enough people in management and law enforcement know enough about computer technology to prevent the crimes. Authorities have to be familiar with the computer’s capabilities within a given situation to guard against its misuses. In some large cities, such as Los Angeles, police departments have set up specially trained computer crime units.

But even when an offender is caught, the investigators, attorneys (律师), judges, or juries may find the alleged crime too complicated and perplexing to handle. More attorneys are specializing in computer law and studying the computer’s potential for misuse.

After a computer crime has been discovered, many companies do not report it or prosecute (起诉) the person responsible. A company may not announce the crime out of fear that the pubic will find out the weaknesses of its computer system and lose confidence in its organization. Banks, credit card companies, and investment firms are especially sensitive about revealing their vulnerabilities (脆弱性) because they rely heavily on customer trust.

To avoid public attention, cautious companies will often settle cases of computer tampering out of court. And if cases do go to trial and the offenders are convicted, they may be punished only by a fine or light sentence because the judge or jury isn’t fully trained to understand the nature and seriousness of the crime.

Not all companies are timid in apprehending computer criminals. For example, Connecticut General Life Insurance Company decided it had to get tough on violators.

So when the company discovered that one of its computer technicians had embezzled about200, 000 by entering false benefit claims, it presented it findings to the state’s attorney and aided in the prosecution of the technician. The technician was found guilty and sentenced to prison, not just for the computer misuse, but also for grand theft and insurance fraud. Connecticut General now has a policy of reporting all incidents of theft or fraud, no matter how small.

Why do you always get up from the rich »

Ordinary people this is the greatest confusion, recently had the honour rich province with a rich side of the Lao Zhu (a pseudonym), who held talks with Cuxi, deeply inspired. We have the appropriate Adventure rich too conservative
Zhu said that he was only 20 years ago, a farmer, for generations are honest people, it is difficult to find work locally, so Huaichuai 200 yuan in cash from Lin Sheng went to Jiangsu to make a living; emerged, now has a number of Lao Zhu The holding of listed companies, across the retail, real estate, tourism and various industries such as food, worth nearly 10 billion market value.
Figure ease and comfort the people, the rich man plans challenges - two completely different attitude is very clear. Lao Zhu acknowledged that if the same was also named to the forefathers, it would not have today's achievements. And today, the comfort and stability of many young people is still the first choice of employment factor.
On the same fiscal Lao Zhu said that ordinary people will pick the Capital Preservation Fund, in return feel that there are 3 to 5 percent has been met; millionaire often love to buy a certain proportion of equity funds, prefer to take certain risks, but also earn a little more .
We dare to say no echoed its views rich
There are many people the truth echoed its views, some are superstitious, some parents Echuan, the vast majority are misleading. For example, ordinary people are thought to the property management fees, that越少越好. The less property management fees of residential quarters, due to lack of staff care, often live for five years already is Popolanlan - to point in the property management fees, the house of the future appreciation of the whole space was destroyed by the enemy.
There is also a negative mentality is to buy insurance compared the rate of return, return Cai Gao buy. In fact, buying insurance is for families to buy a safety net, the most critical content of the policy is adequate protection, claims credibility, and service agents in place. In fact, insurance is not investment.
We are sheep character is the rich character of the wolf
Is going to open up the western market, sending cadres to Lanzhou, Chengdu and other places on the 34 stem, the future of the rich man will not hesitate, even Maosuizijian. General people are unwilling to leave the Company in Nanjing, consider a long time, unwilling to delay action.
One is the character of the wolf, and the other is the sheep character. To the recent popular in the bank to buy funds as an example, the character of the Wolves in the net value of equity funds reached 1.30 yuan when buying; sheep wait until the final character of the people when they bought 2.30 yuan. Wolf has to make money, and buy when the price of sheep has been relatively high, is likely to lead to the final loss.
We concentrate on the rich pay attention to important details
Ordinary people in daily consumption, will be used to spend half an hour of Qukankanjia, provincial point Xiaoqian. However, they may, on the bank accounts of the 300,000 yuan in cash - only趴in the bank, received little interest.
Xiaoqian smart, stupid lot of money - public financial management is the true portrayal of the status quo. 300,000 yuan deposits, if requested, only 10 per cent rate of return, the profits of 2001 output is 30,000 yuan. The current domestic environment, to achieve an annual 10 percent rate of return is not easy - at least compared to every day Kanjia province Jiner much.
Do not care about the world, only bow to his days watching the small things can change in the foreseeable future, can only face house prices, oil prices and stock prices continue to lament: This world is changing fast. Two years ago, the rich people have already felt the appreciation of the RMB will be, will have its own timely dollars into the hands of some of the renminbi, to avoid a 5-10 percent of the exchange rate losses. So advance with the times, but the crying is not just a slogan.

Scaling the road, entrepreneurship and polite!

I found that many people's entrepreneurial passion regained consciousness and began germinating, from the depths of the soul the desire and reality in the face of pressure from the ideological confrontation repeatedly, through the venture would like to change their lives, "to wage the boss really enough "," Stay in this position for more than 10 years, the new people in, I really have to choose a new way out ", yes ah, yes to continue to engage in the past, step-by-step career, or full of challenges and opportunities to join the entrepreneurial world» Now some people may be wavering, they need an understanding from the family, who look forward to the blessing. Yang Lan Chile Colombia in the international marketing consultant seems, although everyone has their way of life, but the basic conditions mature, or their own resources accumulated to a certain extent, obey the call of their hearts, Dreams are the wishes of their own from a young age, yet The Hammer is a Huichangdangqi initiatives. In this, we will invest more encouragement and appreciation. Because of the way in the venture, everything is full of uncertainties, all highly variable, but equally, and all are full of temptations, and all are full of wonderful. On the first line, a blue-Colombian foreign international marketing consultant of the acclaim you will be more firm.
Remember that a well-known U.S. entrepreneurs贝克哈吉斯in his book "The pipeline story," a book has become a millionaire Dianpo the required three steps:
First, understand how to create wealth and accumulated;
Second, follow the example has been proven successful creation of wealth;
3. Unremittingly to do.
The channel said the book probably is the story: in 1801, Italy and Central Valley home to a small group of old villagers, they need to drink plenty of water to go very far from the river pick, then mayor of this task Tiaoshui Points to the A and B two people, two people have very great dream, but two different people's thinking, therefore produced two different results:
A way of thinking is preparing two big buckets to the river every day Tiaoshui, pick a bucket of water in a bucket of water to make money, and B of thinking in the water between the village and the construction of a pipeline for water continue to flow Into the village. B of the proposal say, many people were Daocunzili the opposition, because the villagers drink plenty of water for generations are Lin buckets to pick in the village, but the B stick to their thinking and begin the construction of this pipeline, the construction of this Pipeline in the process, B also found a number of his thinking and the same person, and he is willing to jointly build the pipeline, this time in their life, day in Lin buckets for a living, build the pipeline at common. Many days have passed, A has earned some money, he bought a new house, a lot of food. However, B and his partners earned a bucket to use most of the money spent on the construction of the pipeline, because they know that once the pipe-repair, water will continue to flow into the village, day after day, indeed, B And his partners-to repair the pipeline, the water flow into the village. The villagers were surprised and said B is a wonderful person. In this way, water continue to flow into the village, B and his partners have an endless stream of income. B and his partner is lying on the home will have money, no matter what they do, there will be an endless stream of income, but also Lin A day is a bucket, because if he stopped the work, there will be no income .
United States successfully broke Lunxi Er scholars have said such a passage: "between people only a very small difference, but this is a very small difference between a huge difference! Small differences with the mentality that is Is positive or negative, the difference is huge success and failure. "
Now, after Help People Work hard but the professional managers, with the passage of time can not disguise the sense of anxiety, to some extent, work hard to give them more incentives, on the contrary, try a new approach to its own His master of philosophy and master their own destiny has never been looking forward to this so clearly, coupled with the constant temptation of entrepreneurship in their hearts set off again and ripples, so to achieve the dream of wealth will be guided for their part in the current venture, Construction of the pipeline from their own, I think, as long as unremitting efforts, wealth will certainly be to smile.
