Making their products harder to recycle does not make it impossible to recycle. Hence the logic about less environment friendly is simply not true.

- jmduke 14y agoAre you arguing that Retina MacBook which complied with EPEAT would not be more environmentally friendly than one which did not comply?
- kenrikm 14y agoActually that's possible, for example if the battery in a Retina Macbook lives for 800 - 1k cycles because they use better technology and the battery in a average PC laptop only lives 400 - 500 then yes it's possible that the Mac could be better for the environment. Someone would have to do a thorough check on each component to objectively verify if it's better or worse then EPEAT certified laptop. All things are not equal standards like EPEAT are too generic to rely on in all cases.
