                      Customer Programs
                      HP has a number of ways that customers can return their old products for recycling. In
                      some cases, the customer might realize some cost savings off a new HP product, but
                      whether the customer gets some savings or not, they get to recycle the machine knowing
                      that it is being done in an environmentally responsible way.

                      Trade-In  HP is also cutting down the amount of thrown-away computers by allowing
                      customers to trade in used equipment. They can either get a check from HP or apply the
                      amount the equipment is worth to a new HP purchase.
                         To get a quote, HP just needs information about the device, including product type,
                      manufacturer, model, condition, and the consumer’s ZIP Code. Then, HP will provide
                      a prepaid shipping label for the item. You can get a quote from HP by using the tool at
                      Link 9-4. This is shown in Figure 9-3.
