One of the concerns many environmentalists have voiced lately is how hard it is to recycle old computers. The cases themselves represent a lot of metal, and unless you specially recycle them they will end up directly in a landfill taking up space.
Recompute aims to address the core of this issue. They are a computer manufacturer, but unlike any other their main focus is on the life-cycle of the PC, from creation to decommissioning.
The computer case itself is made out of cardboard. This recycle-friendly material means that when your computer finally bites the dust, you can literally throw it in your recycling bin (sans components). You can purchase a ready-made computer (complete with Windows 7 or Ubuntu) or build your own by buying the case and providing your own components (MATX motherboard).
