Over the past couple of months some computer companies came up with “Green” or “Greener” computers. What are those?

For the most part, they are free from lead and other heavy metals. Some have some additional power savings. Then there are various computer take-back programs. That’s about it!

That makes them somewhat greener than what computers were before.

Together we can do better than that. Read on.

Is That Good Enough? Is There Something Else Yo Should Know About?

Did you know that the manufacturing of computer components releases toxins and carcinogens into the environment? Those substances are still in your computer when it is sitting right next to you, and they do gas out. In small quantities, but enough to make some people with chemical sensitivities so sick they can’t use that particular computer. Can this be any good for healthy people?

Picture yourself, or your kids filling up on those cancer causing substances.

The GreenMachine computers shown below, reduce those toxins by over 97%!! In the factory and when you are sitting next to it. Sounds much better doesn’t it?

First It Get Worse Then Better

‘Normal’ and what we call ‘Light Green’ computers also contain brominated flame retardants. About an ounce.

What are those?

The stuff is called “Tetrabromobisphenol A”. In case “bisphenol-A” sounds familiar, it was in the news back in June, linked to prostate cancer. It mimics estrogen, messing with our hormonal balances. The male fetus can get a genetic mutation that causes prostate cancer when exposed to bisphenol-A in the womb.

There is a lot more to that chemical, you can read up on it in our e-class.

Over the past couple of weeks we’ve read that some of the bigger manufacturers are planning to eliminate bisphenol-A by 2009.

Now The Good News

You can eliminate it now. Our GreenMachine contains already 97% less of those flame retardants.

Everybody Loves Saving Power

That’s why we use only power supplies that are more than 80% efficient. These power supplies can save you about $10 to $30 in electricity per year.

You also get a monitor that uses 10-20% less electricity than others.

You’ll save another couple percent electricity using a GreenMachine. The superior design of the motherboard reduces power consumption, which in turn creates less heat, which allows us to operate the cooling fans at slower speeds. They run quieter and last longer.

The computer itself lasts longer!

That saves you money. Fewer failures & returns mean lower fuel consumption, less aggravation and stress for you.

Are You Aware of All the Noise and Noises Around You?

How does “silence” feel?

Are you aware of the noise around you when you sit at your computer? Does your computer create a noise “blanket”, covering up many other small noises? One of our users told me that, after talking to me and setting up the new GreenMachine in his office, there was “computer silence”. He suddenly heard all the other noiseAggravated, he started turning those off. Finally, the TV that he had running as background “white noise”, had its plug pulled, too. 

He said his productivity went up by about 10 to 20% since then, his utility bill down by about 30%. And he feels a lot fresher when he’s done working in the evening.

Picture yourself in an environment like that!

What Does Electromagnetic Radiation Do to You?

One of our affiliates a cancer survivor measured electromagnetic emissions from our computer. He said: “Wow, there is nothing coming out. Other computers bleep all over the place.”

Many energy workers, NDs, homeopathic practioners say we shouldn’t sit next to a computer, because it depletes our energy field! Merri Walters, an Ann Arbor intuitive healer, says that the GreenMachine is not depleting the human energy field. The low noise level and super shield put little stress on the human body. You’ll be less tired and stressed after a day’s work. Long term effects like higher productivity and less disease are possible for you too.

Computers Can Cause Eye Strain, Neck, Back and Hand Strain

Eye strain is usually caused by lower quality monitors, their picture quality and contrast is not good enough and the lighting at your computer workspace. Make sure that all this factors are taken care off properly.

Black Keyboards add to Eye Strain. When you are looking at your screen down on the keyboard, back to your screen, the contrast goes from well lit background to black and back. The constant adjust makes your eye tired in the evening. Or even a slight headache.

Almost all keyboards on the market don’t have well designed pressure points and don’t support fingers/hand/wrist/arm/shoulder/neck while typing. Repetitive-Strain-Injury (RSI) and Carpal Tunnel are very common in today’s office environment.

The wrong location of keyboard and monitor force you into a bad position at your desk. Causing everything from stiff necks, to back or shoulder pain. Notebooks are not a good ergonomic solution and not “made” to type on every or all day. I know they are convenient - somewhat. They should only be used exceptionally. If a notebook is needed, make sure to use an external keyboard and get the notebook screen off the desk to put it into the correct position.

Invest in Yourself!

My mom told me “to never be cheap” when choosing things you use daily: shoes, mattress, food, office chair, tools, and now computers. That advice stuck with me and it has worked out very well.

Do you think that way, too?

Now, if you work on a computer more than 1 or 2 hours a day you might consider getting the best possible solution. Including the best quality monitor for your eyes and keyboard to protect your hands.

There is a significant return on investment on all good quality. Be it monetary, quality of life, and/or peace of mind.

Does it make sense to type on a $3 keyboard all day long and risk RSI (repetitive strain injury), carpal tunnel, or fatigue? A $25 keyboard allows you to type faster and more accurate, is ergonomic and keeps your fingers, hands, wrists and arms in the best possible shape. Or move up to a $90 keyboard that keeps your fingers, wrists and arms in a “natural”, strain free position.

If you type almost every day on your computer for 5 years, the difference we’re talking about is 1.2 cents per day ($3 to $25 upgrade) or 4.77 cents per day ($3 to $90 upgrade).

Do you really save money buying cheap equipment?

Would you be willing to invest $1 per day into feeling fresher and more energized? Yes?

Sounds like, a 15 cent investment per day for a high quality, environmentally friendly, ergonomic computer doesn’t sound really outrageous.

But wait, if you are more productive every day, let’s say 10% from the example above. If you make $200 a day, that’s about $20 per day more. Over the 5 years, that’d be $22,000.

If your financial advisor would give you a 13,300% (yes, thirteen-thousand-and-threehundred percent) return on investment, would you jump on it? Just like any financial advisor we cannot guarantee you this kind of return. But, you get the picture.

Last But Not Least - Our Computer Take-Back Program

We offer a computer take-back program. It is free for you. We take back your old computer if you get one from us. We also take back all computers you got from us and make sure the components are recycled properly and kept out of landfills.

We do recommend using local take-back programs, for fuel savings (shipping), packaging, etc. We’ll work with you to find the best possible way to recycle your equipment.

If you need more details about all or some of the above, sign up to our free e-class. Signup here.

Now, it’s time to have a look at the computers, scroll down just a little bit more. If you have any questions, give us a call, we’re here to help and answer your questions.
