   pages-v2-g5.css. Same system as the rebuilt /partners/, /buy-refurbished/ and /nonprofits/ pages (the /itad/ v3
   look Tom approved): ink photo hero with the IT Manager quote under the buttons · text-led heading / body splits ·
   the retrieval loop drawn as a sequence with a return line from step 4 back to step 2 (the loop, not a list) · one
   ink band for "why redeploy" · visible answers · the shared closing form. Every rule is scoped by a dlm- class that
   exists on this page alone. Lime / black / white tokens only; no shared part restyled.
