laptop computers the chance to trade them in for cash!
The scheme, which launches today (Thursday 27th September), encourages owners of
3-year old Apple-made desktops and/or laptops the chance to trade their models in for a
large cashback sum. Even those who may not own an Apple-made computer
[http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/desktop-pc-monitors/desktop-pcs-706-c.html ] are encouraged
to trade-in their old desktops and laptops.*
Currys and PC World hope to promote recycling through the program, persuading

decide to replace their existing models.

- Customers will receive GBP350 cashback when they trade in an iMac, Macbook
Air or Macbook Pro
- Customers will receive GBP250 cashback when they trade in a Macbook
- And finally, customers will receive GBP100 when they trade in any-other make
of laptop or desktop.
To take part in the scheme customers must firstly purchase a qualifying MacBook, iMac
or Mac mini from either currys.co.uk or pcworld.co.uk websites.** They are then instructed
to fill out an online claim form, which will help identify whether a model can be
traded-in or not, before sending their old Apple or old computer to a given address
