[BozemanLUG] computer junk

[Scott Dowdle]

Rob,

I believe someone sponsors a city wide eWaste event once per year for the city of Bozeman.  By sponsor I mean they end up paying for the disposal costs of everything that gets turned in.  I don't know if that is going to continue or not.

On campus they have added a 5% of cost fee to new computer purchases for the future disposal.
