Are Huawei laptops safe? Intel,

Microsoft promise support, but

the future remains uncertain

laptop on Amazon is safe to buy, or whether

the Huawei machine they’ve already bought is

safe. After all, if Intel, AMD, Nvidia, Qualcomm

and other U.S. tech companies can no longer

sell chips to the Chinese tech company, isn’t

the company basically dead to you?
