Reduce the Need – Buy smart so that a computer can grow with an employee. Cascade older equipment to users with less technologically demanding jobs. Equipment rentals can also get you through crunch times without forcing you to acquire a lot of new technology.

Buy Used – Consider used equipment the next time you are looking to purchase hardware. Technology firms are recognizing the detrimental effect of short computer life spans and are now improving the performance of their machines. According to Gartner Inc., longer computer life has given a serious boost to the market for used computers and peripherals. In fact, Gartner expects very strong growth in used computer sales over the next few years.

 

Even if your company practices “green computing” there may come a time when disposal is the only option.
