Produce more waste than an Xbox with an aluminum case?
Should I remind you that apple actually encourages it's users to recycle and are considered the greenest of electronics? No not their press, it just is.
They have a lot of very questionable practices, as in very questionable, but until you realize how systemic to transnationals this is, and not company specific, the rest will continue to imitate Appe in it's worst practices. Go ahead and hide from that fact.
It reminds me of a conversation while in Mexico regarding the banks...we hate the bankers, but by all means kid getting a summer paid internship and getting paid 30k for six weeks is by no means a real symptom of what is wrong. Nor is kid having a five number salary job already lined up.
From a PR perspective Apple would have been better without releasing a lot of these reports from it's own supply chain. Think about this for a second, a lot of what we know about working conditions in china came from internal Apple memos that were released to the NYT investigative team for example.
Apple management is torn. Some say they can't do a thing, others say they can. They are having the debate, unlike oh Ikea, which also moved production. Soon everything will mostly be produced there.
But go ahead, hate a single company. I am sure you not buying Apple products will make the point. 
After all you are central to their success.
