Pedestrians cross a street at Taipei's bustling Kuanghwa Market
district, a bazaar-like warren of computer shops where consumers haggle
over the latest motherboards, microprocessors and tech gadgets on
January 14, 2002. Taiwan manufactures much of the world's personal
computers, mostly on behalf of U.S. and Japanese brands, and have
chosen to enter the giant mainland China market under their own brand
name. REUTERS/Simon Kwong TO ACCOMPANY FEATURE TECH-TAIWAN-BRAND
