China orders government, state firms to dump foreign PCs
The exercise is likely to eventually replace at least 50 million PCs on a central-government level alone.
BEIJING (BLOOMBERG) - China has ordered central government agencies and state-backed corporations to replace foreign-branded personal computers with domestic alternatives within two years, marking one of Beijing's most aggressive efforts so far to eradicate key overseas technology from within its most sensitive organs.
The decision advances China's decade-long campaign to replace imported technology with local alternatives, a sweeping effort that covers everything from semiconductors to networking gear and phones.
It is likely to directly affect sales by HP and Dell Technologies, the country's biggest PC brands after local champion Lenovo Group.
