US agency calls for probe over fears Lenovo "bugged" PCs

The US-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC) is calling for an officiel investigation into Chinese PC firm Lenovo's contract to supply compuers to the State Department. The group fears Lenovo's PCs may include software or hardware components to facilitate spying on the US government. Snip from BBC story:

Lenovo, which last year bought IBM's PC arm, said it had nothing to hide and would welcome the investigation. Concern has been rising in the US over foreign companies buying US firms.
