Dear Matt, it is good to see idealist like you ara still around but if you look at their website it says in there that they charge for these PCs ( a service charge).
So it seems that the prices (service fees) they charge for old PCs are basically second-hand market prices so basically it appears that this is just a second-hand computer business. Perhaps you might care to expalin as some of your readers dont seem to grasp this.
Also, where is the audit trail to show what happens to the kit and where it ends up ? Perhaps you could kindly publish that on your website as well.
