PC hardware to get more expensive - 25% tax due to US China Trade-war
The US-China trade war might soon have an effect on computer hardware. A new listing reveals a new 25% import tax for electronics made in China by USD companies.
The listing is revealing "electronic integrated circuits: processors and controllers," "electronic integrated circuits: memories," "electronic integrated circuits: amplifiers," "electronic integrated circuits: other," which covers pretty much any PC hardware. This new info was spotted by Flyordie over at TPU who noticed the new import taxes on CNN being listed in this document, and that is not good news, especially for US residing folks:
This new tax takes effect on August 23, 2018. Pretty much if you spend 500 USD on hardware, it would now cost your 625 USD. If you reside in other parts of the globe like EU, this has no effect on you as long as the product do not need to be cross-imported though the USA.
Intel or NVIDIA for example fabs their PCBs in China, and then often ships them to the US HUB, once the fully assembled product reaches the EMEA region, that would invoke a 25% increase in cost. However, I foresee many bypasses, e.g. electronics being shipped to say Taiwan, rebadged and shipped to the USA as a TW product, simply to bypass the tariff.

Trump is an out right idiot but I can see myself doing many of the things he is doing right now when I'm drunk. I like him when I'm drunk.
Edit: I'm drunk. See me in the morning and i'll be cursing him.

What do you think the odds are, being Trump has associated with the same criminal element Gates, Manafort and Cohen for decades, that he's engaged in the same fraud? I'd say 100%. You probably do too.
Seriously I don't get how you can admire a man who brags about sexually abusing women because he's famous, pays off his affairs while he's cheating on his wife who just had a baby... Sex with pron stars, ripping folks off. I mean it is obvious his unfit to hold the office and represent us. How can you explain this to your kids? How do you explain the POTUS raging on the podium in front of TEENAGERS raging and claiming the free press is the ENEMY of Americans. How can YOU defend that. How would YOU explain Trump to your Grandfather?
"I'm just kicked back watching/reading what you type."
Just another version of 'Dunning-Kruger'...I predict a repeat. But you may surprise me by admitting you now believe you made a mistake. You'd gain back some measure of self-respect.
