CDI Doubles Capacity for Recycling and Reselling Information Technology

MARKHAM, Ontario--(Business Wire)--
CDI Computer Dealers, Inc. (CDI), one of the largest independent
re-marketers of IT equipment in North America, today announced the
opening of a new, 64,000-square foot processing facility in Toronto
that more than doubles its capacity to recycle and remarket technology
assets. CDI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rolling Meadows,
Illinois-based Relational Technology Solutions, refurbishes and then
resells or leases the vast majority of the recycled technology rather
than placing it in landfills.

"With this new facility, CDI is well-positioned to support
customers in a slowing economy," said Mark Stachulski, chief operating
officer of CDI's parent company, Relational Technology Solutions. "We
have already seen a sharp increase in the number of inquiries for ways
in which medical, education and government institutions can maximize
their IT purchasing power."

CDI's new facility is designed to process in excess of 1,000 IT
assets daily. Automated lines manage the tagging, cleaning,
refurbishing and imaging of servers, desktops, notebooks, LCD and CRT
displays, printers, telephones and accessories.

"The District's five-year plan called for total replacement of
computers in all of the eleven schools. Taking the budget into
consideration, going with refurbished computers that were purchased
from CDI Computer Dealers enabled the District to stretch the budget
dollar and accomplish the goal of total replacement in a specific time
frame," said Bill Hodrinsky, director of technology for the Connetquot
School District, Long Island, NY.

"The best way to divert technology from landfills is to find it a
second useful life," said Saar Pikar, CDI's general manager. "At CDI,
we remarket every possible asset and succeeded with more than 90% of
the assets we processed last year. When remarketing is not possible,
or specifically unwanted by the equipment owner, we follow a strict
zero landfill policy to recycle the equipment with no environmental
impact."
