i think most  of those laptop manufacturer in taiwan build their production line in china,

this lower the cost and maybe lower the price that when we buy one.

Yes, well, the PRC would find my contention redundant anyway.

Last I knew, Acer and Asus were still assembling in Taiwan, what with those pesky missiles aimed their way, and the tiresome direct travel restrictions.  Perhaps the thaw in relations has progressed beyond my wildest dreams.
