Hi guys, a little off topic but of interest to most manufacturers, this came
courtesy of Nigel Burtt through the SMART Group link -  please pass this
link along to your commercial and design departments.

It concerns the EuP programme in Europe, a couple of notes. The 200K units
referred to are the TOTAL market (not just your shipped product).

Since this includes computer systems it is probably of interest to most
component/processor manufacturers also.

Kind regards,

John
