HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- China has banned the use of Windows 8 on all government computers, according to a notice published Tuesday on the website of the Central Government Procurement center. The notice didn't specify the reasons for the move. Microsoft's China unit responded on Tuesday evening that they were "very surprised" by the move, according to various reports by Chinese media. "We would continue to provide Windows 7 to our government clients, while working with government agencies to evaluate our Windows 8 products." The move coincided with China's condemnation of U.S. charges against members of its military for alleged cyber attacks.
