Currently, the U.S. PC makers have put most of China PC manufacturing activities. Therefore, U.S. companies in the industry on the development of hardware and software is still in the leading question.

Pace University Marketing and International Business Professor Robert G. Vambery said the next 10 to 20 years, China will lead in terms of hardware and software development.
