I honestly think that in due time (1+ years from now) someone will have figured out a way to recycle those new Apple tech toys. Glue melts, glass and aluminum has different melting points...

I honestly think that people are making a bigger deal out of it than it is. Also, the better something is designed the longer I will personally want to use it. Make stuff out of cardboard, but if it starts falling apart it will end up being thrown out sooner rather than later. My family still uses and owns the iBook G4 I purchased in 2004...
