"...make a product that would serve as an ecological, earth-friendly component rack."

Well, if cardboard is regurgitated wood then I can't see how it's more earth-friendly than wood, and wood is easier to package, is more solid, can be shaped, polished, painted and made to look more stylish than cardboard.

Can't see the ecological advantage of taking wood which is an excellent material for making strong, good looking, durable products, and replacing it with wood which has been pulped, pressed and glued, unless the cardboard is re-cycled.

Even if it was recycled, cardboard is less than ideal for anything which is meant to last. Spill a glass of water against cardboard or onto the carpet beside it and within minutes it's ready to be mush - do the same with wood and it wipes off.

There's reasons why trees aren't made of cardboard. :0)
