Will Chinese manufacturers also be prohibited from using Windows?

  I think the recent executive order was explicitly for Huawei, which is troubling because the executive branch is targeting not a country, but a specific country. It's likely Apple or Samsung's US dept might have specifically lobbied for this (although we won't know; it's speculative and potentially unethical). I have a feeling Microsoft, Google, Intel and others will take this to court though. They literally stand to lose hundreds of millions, each!

  There is silence from Microsoft, including a silent removal of Huawei laptops from their retail offerings. Fingers crossed, there will be an Ubuntu (South African) version of a high end laptop coming soon. Not sure what the CPU will be for that though.
