PC Recyclers-Consumer Tech Index
Product Description
Recycling is hot, and for several reasons: new technology constantly comes out which makes old technology obsolete, or at least feel obsolete. Furthermore, a large number of Americans have grown in their awareness of ecological actions and green living and buying.
This Consumer Tech Index reveals some surprises about the people who recycle their old home PCs.
For example, the most avid PC recyclers (those that index above 150), are not the engaged youth who focus on conservation efforts. In fact, those who recycled their home PCs the most are considerably older than the average online adult. They are also in smaller households, so ostensibly they don’t have someone nearby who might use the older home PC.
Above-average PC recyclers (index 120 and above) can be found shopping for more PC-related products at computer superstores as well as certain other types of retail outlets.
They are also active mobile phone users.
