old HP M70 - 17" CRT w/ built in mic

worked great up until it stopped working great. (?)

I remember a small plume of smoke and it wasn't working. It was turned off when it happened too.

Free to whomever wants to came and get it. Or it becomes dumpster fodder.

"In October of 2001, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned the dumping of CRT's"

"Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT's) contain hazardous materials. In your discarded computer monitors & televisions there are large quantities of lead, phosphorous, cadmium, barium and mercury. As a product, these hazardous materials are safely sealed. We are HazMat certified and registered with the California Integrated Waste Management Board and the Department of Toxic Substance Control for the safe handling of used CRT monitors for safe disposal.

When the monitor is sent to a landfill, heavy equipment is used to compact the waste. This crushing and smashing of the waste causes the hazardous materials to be released into the surrounding area, and a leaching process occurs as a result of this CRT breakage. These toxic materials will eventually find their way into our water supply. When the glass is crushed by trash facilities, the lead-bearing particles become an airborne hazard.

Located within a CRT monitor are five toxic substances. Lead, mercury and barium are the most toxic substances of the five within the CRT. The other toxins which are located within the CRT are cadmium and phosphorous. If improperly managed, the health risks associated with human contact to these five toxic substances within the CRT can be deadly."
