Elective E-Waste: Decision Trees Downstream

Citizen's Arrest, Citizen's Arrest!
Let's say that your company is an E-Steward Certified company.  Your staff tests computer monitors and Pentium computers, they are all fully functional, and meet the tests adocated by Basel Action Network, VPIRG and Electronics Takeback Campaign.   Let's say that you go beyond that, and you insist they are sold to an ISO14001, ISO9000 buyer who checks and verifies every purchase.  Let's say that your buyer even takes back (from their own country) one junk CRT for every computer they resell, so the whole trade is scrap-neutral.  They provide reconciliation of every shipment, allowing you to make steady improvments to your Quality Control.

We can say that the company is in an OECD country, like Mexico.  Let's say that it's owned by a women's cooperative, creating jobs for Mexicans in Mexico, reuse markets in a country without HDTV (where USA rabbit ear CRT TVs work).   Or if you prefer, let's say it's a Manufacturer Takeback operation, the factory in Indonesia or China which originally assembled the monitors as a contract manufacturer for Gateway, HP, Dell, etc.

What about ELECTIVE UPGRADES?
