"May 20, 2004

A New York startup selling Linux-based thin-client management software 
has called foul on HP and Dell for recent efforts to fund computer 
recycling programs. Symbio Technologies says the computing giants stand 
to sell more new PCs if future diskless clients are destroyed, instead 
of being donated to schools or resold."
