Why would China want to block apple.com?
It would have made sense if it was North Korea who was blocking, but China? China is one of the most "western" asian countries.

for the people there, attached to a PC for ever :( , Maybe it's because they are going to start soon a Linux project and don't want people to know about other OSes :( , or is it because lot of apple products are assembled in Taiwan?, Unlikely but sometimes someone has to give the stupid reasons and wait goos reasons from the next people... :o

Well, Apple uses fabrication plants in Communist China as well, if I recall, so that seems unlikely.
