Greenpeace recently released their guide to greener electonics. Companies are ranked by their chemicals policy / practice and by their recycling policy / practice. Business week assess the impact of such reports upon consumer buying. The EPA also provides advice on buying and recycling electronics.
My only additional comment being that it is not immediately obvious what toxic chemicals Greenpeace is looking at. The report mentions the reduction / elimination of Bromine Fire retardants, and PVC but little else. Though as you delve down into the report you see other chemicals mention as part of Greenpeace's analysis of that company.
