    FOR ANYONE WITH MACHINES THEY WANT TO GET RID OF, CONTACT (this guy) IN IRELAND WHO WILL COLLECT AND DESTROY ON SITE (IF POSS).
    IT'S NOW A LAW TO RECYCLE.
    THESE GUYS GIVE GOOD QUOTES AND SOMETIMES COST NOTHING DEPENDING ON QUALITY OF EQUIPMENT.
    KEEP THIS IN MIND

    Can you please give more details on this LAW.

    Oh and the link just points to
    " This domain has been registered for a client by Easyspace. "

    Typing in caps will just make people think it's an Ad and it could end up in the sin bin

    does indeed look like an add. but he/she is right, it's being illegal to dump computers/tvs/certain electronic items for a while now. the way it works iirc is you bring it to your local dump, pay 40ish euro and they send it to a specialised dump, where the parts are stripped down catagorise, tested to see if they're worth keeping then if not dumped. You pretty much sound like a company trying to drum up business

    found this searching google, http://archives.tcm.ie/businesspost/2001/11/04/story308420.asp

    if you want to place an add talk to dev, other wise feck off :)
    plus as Capt'n Midnight said the caps don't help, IS YOUR CAPS LOCK KEY BROKEN?

    pay 40ish euro - that's how much we were quoted for our old tv :p, now it's under my bed, giving me harmful toxins, yey

    So far all I can find are directives that prohibit the INCINERATION of electronic goods...

    By August 2005, there must be free take-back/collection in place and producer financing arrangements set up ...
