arirangnews2014.5.21---中國政府電腦禁止安裝Windows8
發佈日期：2014年5月21日
And finally moving onto China... where the government has issued a ban on Microsoft's latest computer operating system.
Bejiing said the ban on installing Windows 8 on all Chinese government computers was part of a notice regarding energey-saving products.
Xinhua news agency said it was also to ensure computer security... as the U.S. tech company continues to struggle with sales in the communist country.
"There are two elements here, one is technical, whatever the specific reason the Chinese have, and one is political. When you're dealing with China and large multinational organizations like Microsoft, there's always a political angle."
Meanwhile, Microsoft has doubled down on tablet PCs as it attempts to shift its business towards consumer devices and services.
The faster and thinner Surface Pro 3 was unveiled at an event in New York on Thursday, which the company hopes will eventually replace mainstream laptops.
That wraps up our look at international stories making headlines around the world. I'll see you back here, tomorrow night.
