Fujitsu Making Laptops From Unwanted CDs and DVDs

Back in our day, we used to listen to music on shiny plastic discs with lasers, not any of your new-fangled Zunes and what not. That was back when bands had sensible names. These days, however, CDs and DVDs are remnants of a simpler time. 

Fujitsu will be putting those outdated media formats to work again, with are cycling program that uses the material to build shiny new notebooks, starting with the Lifebook P772/E enterprise laptop, with more models to follow. According to the company, the new program is set to reduce the use of new plastic by 10 tons a year and slice C02 emissions by around 15 percent.

I really can't wait to see how these laptops end up turning out, maybe someday our old CDs and DVDs will be become valuable for their scrap metal value alone haha, this is a pretty good, innovative idea in my honest opinion.
