Talk about incredibly wasteful packaging. When it comes to products being ridiculously over-packaged, HP is among the usual suspects, which also include Dell, AT&T and Amazon. We thought we’d seen it all when Brett from TUAW received an invoice for ““75011 MISC iPhone PPA BAG … $0.00”, packed up in a big box along with a plastic bag.
This one, however, takes the cake: The Register got wind of a gigantic box from HP delivered to one Stephen Strang, which contained 16 smaller boxes, each of which contained two sheets of A4 paper protected by foam. 17 total boxes to protect 32 pieces of paper. Amazing. Get a clue, retailers! This kind of waste is disgusting.
