Toxic HP, PVC Lenovo and Brominated Dell

Apparently, there was a pact to phase out the use of PVC and brominated flame retardants by the end of 2009 by the top PC makers but it seems, only Apple will be the only one in the top 5 to do it. The rest, namely HP, Lenovo and Dell said they will not make it this year. No new deadlines from HP and Dell while Lenovo said it will try it again in 2010. Meanwhile, Acer appears to be still committed to end it all in 2009.
