The below is purely theoretical (not based on hard facts). I know it's
over simplified, but it's just there to further explain the point.
Buy new scenario:
The DOE purchases 2,000 new computers every year and discards 1,000
computers every year.
Hawaii businesses, military, government, etc. purchase 10,000 new
computers every year and discards 2,000 computer
every year.
Landfill receives 3,000 computers every year.
LTSP scenario:
Hawaii businesses, military, government, etc. purchase 10,000 new
computers every year and discards 2,000 computer
every year.
The DOE recycles those 2,000 computers for LTSP thin clients.
Landfill receives 0 computers every year.
