Ars Technica reports that the EPA really likes A le's computers. (Cue Sally Field.) The EPA, which grades computers on a a 51-criteria scale, gave A le some very high marks.
According to the grading scheme, computers that meet all the required criteria and at least half of the optional criteria are awarded silver medals. (No computers have won gold medals.) A le's MacBook Pro line received 6 silver medals, as did the Mac Pro and several Cinema Di lays.
We've already covered A le's exte ive recycling program, energy efficiency goals, and reduction of harmful materials in manufacturing in an earlier TUAW post. It's nice to know that the EPA agrees. Clearly some grou targeting A le for environmental concer aren't in agreement with the EPA's stance.
