Carbon "neutral" means they decided to pay someone for the right to do business. Great, Dell. You're the first to admit you spent way too much money on nothing. I see you're really committed to being "green" and eco-friendly. How about easy on the wallet, too? Or are you expecting to pass on this extra cost to your customer?

Only the offices of Dell are probably "green", or carbon neutral, if at all. I doubt that the OEM factories that are churning the Dell machines in China are even close to green. Maybe with envy....
But yes, Dell is only some offices and all the kit is outsourced. Way to go, green or not.

No entity can claim to be truly "green" until and unless all its supporting industries are green also.

Dells use electricity and 80% of the world's transmitted electrical power is created from burning coal. Therefore Dell claiming to be green is pure marketing BS. And a lot of people will believe Dell is helping the environment in extraordinary ways.

And consider the companies that make the batteries they use. Not exactly a tree-huggers dream come true.

I don't see the need for the sarcastic tone in this article, It looks like Dell is doing a good thing and I personally support it. I guess the Inq writers take too much pride in being arrogant sarcastic ****s..

Good thing they're saving money on power, because they're going to need it to replace all those bad NVIDIA GPU's.

For some reason, the ubiquitous use of the word "green" as a synonym for ecological, environment friendly, or whatever it is supposed to mean annoys me to no end.

Green is a colour, dammit!
