Three choices for the Six Degrees of Separation Project

First:
My first choice would be my laptop because I use it all the time all day. It helps me with everything I need to do so its important to me. I also know there are toxic parts in it and when I get rid of it it may not be recycled properly. Also if those parts are there I would like to know who and how these parts were made.

Second:
My second choice is a power-strip because I have about five being used just in my room and they are very useful. I don't really know the internal components but the outside for all of mine are all plastic.

Third:
My third would be DVD's or CD's because those are really neat I have no idea how they are made but I use them all the time. So why not do a project on something I would want to know already.
