David Anderson Consulting Recycles
Pursuant to new rules published by the Texas Commission for Environmental
Quality, we have implemented the following free recycling program for computer
systems built by David Anderson Consulting.
For systems we have built, whether unbranded (those systems having a build
date prior to September 1, 2008), or branded, (those systems built on or after
September 1, 2008), we will provide free recycling for these systems. Since our
systems are built on a case-by-case basis, we’ll provide recycling on basically
the same basis. This means that while one person might find it convenient to
bring the system in, another might prefer we pick it up, while another might
want us to simply send shipping labels so they can send their system back. When
you're ready, call us at (903)586-4082 or (877)586-4082, if the first number
would be long distance for you, to arrange for the system's return.
For those systems located outside East Texas, we’ll send labels for the
return of your systems. For those systems located in our normal East Texas
service area, we’ll be happy to come pick them up. We will then reuse the parts
that still have value, and responsibly dispose of those which do not. Those
parts will be recycled, but as yet, the precise form this will take has not yet
been determined.
Since all computer makers have to provide free recycling, you may get better, more
convenient terms from the builder of your next system, if that doesn't happen to
be us.
Manufacturers may recycle any brand, but are only required
to provide free recycling for their own brands. Our brands are identified either by "David Anderson
Consulting" on a label on the system, or by our serial number label on the back
right-hand side of the system as seen from the back. The label says, "System
Serial Number: xx" on the first line, and "Warranty Exp. Date: mm/dd/yyyy"
on the second line.

While not related specifically to recycling, please note the following: When
a computer system is sold or resold, Microsoft and most other
providers of preloaded software require as terms of their license agreement
that this preloaded software also be transferred to the new owner along with the
system. We use the motherboard box to transfer this software to you, the end
user. If you did not receive this box with software, you must have bought the
system from someone other than us. If you do possess the preloaded
software, it must also be returned to us. Microsoft et al doesn't allow it to be
used on another computer. The recycling of the hardware is unaffected, but if
you have the software, we need it when you recycle your system so that the next
owner of this motherboard and chassis combination will have a legal license of
Windows as it is unlikely that 3-5 year old hardware will support the latest
version of Windows.
