Liam, "IMHO, the greenest product is the one you don't buy, ie. reuse repair reconsider." Amen to that.

Savoir68 "But with less work to do... what will happen to our jobs?" Computers have displaced some jobs (ie typists), but for most people the computer means more work, rather than less. Just like the "paperless office"...
