Great, that's exactly what I wanted to know. At the end of the year we're implementing a "green" policy that all print materials must be printed by a "green" printer, preferably (and possibly required) FSC certified. We're doing the same for hosting. Would prefer not to use a host that just buys carbon offsets. I'll have to dig in some more and see what all you guys offer.

Glad to see the credit for everything is being passed around equally.

I look forward to the day when OWC will sell turbines, etc. for home and office use so ALL of us can be Green! Think about it, Larry! Hmm....new profit center? Meantime, I saw the Green bugs near the bottom of the OWC home page, but I think being totally Green warrants a more prominent tagline or banner across the top, near the logo:

Buy from a Green vendor, buy OWC!

I'm just saying it wouldn't hurt for OWC shoppers to know right away that they're potentially buying from a company that cares about everyone's future. Being a marketing guy, this just makes sense to me.

Larry, this is stunningly cool. Kudos to you!

Believe it or not - personal power generation products (solar and wind) are possible future additions to our line up. One step at a time... looking forward to seeing that Turbine start spinning and the power start flowing. Once we've got this all set, we'll be making a web status available to see just what the Turbine is doing. Technology is great. Smile

Awesome. I can see a lot of the community here getting onboard with that!
