Clinton: Tech Exports Require More Latitude WASHINGTON — President Clinton eased export restrictions on computers Thursday, making it easier for the high-tech industry to sell more powerful systems to foreign countries. The industry had sought the change because current restric- tions, designed to keep advanced technology outof the hands of hos: tile militaries, have failed to keep up with the advances in commer: cially available computers. Ofparticular interest to the industry is the vast market in China. which has been under scrutiny for allegedly spying on U.S. nuclear labs. The new, morerelaxed guide. lines will cover sales to China. “The Chinese market is growing about twice as fast as the world market [for computers], about 29 percent a year,” said James W. Jar rett, president of Intel China, a subsidiary of Intel Corp. “And the Chinese PC market is now third or fourth largest in the world, andgiv enits growth rate should be No. 2 in a couple of years.” ‘Therestrictions onsales to what areclassified as “Tier 3° countries currently allow export of systems that can perform 7,000 million the oretical operations per second for 2 ia 7” + meee m0 an s nba lan fm @e ms| Hi Jom Sani Gen . . _ civilian use and 2,000 million per secondfor military use Now, computer makers will be able tosell systems for civilianuse that perform12,300 million opera tions per second.
