Lots of computer components have mercury in them and like you mention, often it's poor countries in Africa which end up paying the price. How durable the laptops are though, I'm not able to say.

I have read a lot of it ends up in Africa as trash where workers have to touch a lot of the toxic materials and the leftovers go into their landfills. A lot of sensitive computer parts are made of rare minerals and the computer makers are trying to save by recycling their old computers and thus saving money... Some cell phone manufacturers are already doing this... Recycling computers is a complicated topic.
