ACCORDING TO a little story on Digtimes a gang of four PC vendors has become eligible to get subsidies from the Chinese government under a programme introduced to promote PC use in rural areas.
HP, Dell, Lenovo and Acer all made the grade. The only top-five vendor deemed inellegible was Asustek.
Tsk.
Obviously they didn't realise Sylvie has such powerful friends. µ

Asustek is a Taiwanese company, so this isn't particularly surprising is it?
Journalism and some basic research should really go together. :p
not sure if you are in the know, but ACER are also taiwanese.
if that was the reason then both american brands wouldnt have got it. China has more than just Leveno you know.
Ok. I know you chaps don't flog much INQUIRER merchandise. But I can't stop thinking about how the spiffiness a Sylvie on a bath sheet or beach towel would hang perfectly with my collections of soap on a rope, or more precisely, my British Sterling soap-on-a-rope. Such a faddish item, no doubt would become the solution to stimulating the economy.
