WeRecycle!, Inc. Now a Microsoft Authorized Refurbisher (MAR)

Wallingford, CT, 11/08/2007 -WeRecycle!, Inc., an industry leading provider of IT asset recovery and recycling services, has become a Microsoft Authorized Refurbisher (MAR). WeRecycle! can now install Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP and Office XP and on computers that are donated by businesses to eligible recipients.

Becoming a MAR allows WeRecycle!'s customers to assist the community by providing reusable computers to those in need. WeRecycle! and their clients can cost effectively install Microsoft operating systems on recycled computers which are then given to schools, nonprofits, and low income families across the globe.

Prior to installing Windows software, WeRecycle! tests each unit for functionality and repairs any damaged units. WeRecycle! is known for their data destruction, inventory tracking, and transparency. With these services, only 100 percent functional refurbished computers are donated.

WeRecycle! has committed to supplying computers each year to charities, schools, or families. Through this program, WeRecycle! serves as a conduit for their customers to allocate equipment to various non-profits through a secure process. The program assures no risk for liability and allows the donating company to gain recognition for their contributions.

"The MAR program coincides with our mission of providing the highest level of service and environmentally responsible management of obsolete equipment," said Mick Schum, P.E., President of WeRecycle! "We are excited for the opportunity to give back to the community and assist families and organizations in need of this valuable equipment. Our corporate clients are eager to participate in this program. We insure data destruction and complete testing, guaranteeing that only fully working units are donated."
