Bottom Line: Implementing a systematic approach for surplus and obsolete IT equipment - especially PCs - is one of those problems that eventually must be tackled. PC equipment retirements will continue to grow as enterprises refresh aging technology, causing a problem previously handled in an ad hoc manner to become large enough that it must be addresses. The challenge is to consider equipment disposal and sales a necessary and ongoing part of day-to-day operations. There is little economic risks to enterprises for improperly disposing of machines. Protecting the enterprise from risk vs. capturing economic opportunity should be the main driver for formalizing a process for the disposal of PC equipment.
