To Remove ‘Do Not Remove’ Stickers
Thanks to Tim Allen (on Twitter) for featuring this poster from iFixit.
iFixit is a site that wants to help people repair things. They are building a free repair manual for every device – a monumental undertaking, but they are making great progress. They rate how easy it is to repair smart phones, tablets and laptops – and they also have sections on appliances, cameras, vehicles and many more.
Our stuff used to be made to last. Now it’s made to last only a couple of years. Repair is green. It keeps the stuff you love in service, and out of a landfill.
Products that can be repaired, should be repaired. Refurbished cell phones can be sold to someone new. Repaired computers bridge the digital divide. Even better, repair jobs are local. They won’t ever be shipped overseas.
This was an interesting site Margy – a tip of the day and did you see all the manuals? I have bookmarked this site for the future (hope I don’t need it though.)

They say they ship to Canada, so I think my husband will be able to find a few things he wants!

That’s good – give other sites a chance to flourish. The manual availability is a good feature too.
