Are these non-capitalist systems? Genuinely commies CPUs? Not cloned reversed chips? About 30-40 years ago the commie block cloned Apple II and Intel 8086 in own chips and the computers worked.
Communism is what the party says communism is - which these days is a good deal more capitalist than the US. The original CPU design was purchased from the US, but a variety of chip makers have been improving on the design in a variety of ways, so it is not US cloned, but is US descended - rather distantly descended by now.
