Couple days ago, a case flashed through the news when CompAtlanta (GA) refused to sell a laser printer to a Canadian. http://www.wired.com/news/ebiz/0,1272,58190,00.html To quote their stance, "At the present time, we do not ship to, or accept bids from, Canada, Mexico, France, Germany or any other country that does not support the United States in our efforts to rid the world of Saddam Hussein. If you are not with us, you are against us."
However, it seems that their stance makes them run afoul of the Antiboycott laws. According to <http://www.bxa.doc.gov/AntiboycottCompliance/OACRequirements.html>, one of the things forbidden under these laws is, quoting, "Agreements to discriminate or actual discrimination against other persons based on race, religion, sex, national origin or nationality." This case looks suspiciously like the mentioned "actual discrimination based on national origin". I am not a lawyer and legalese makes me either sick or sleepy (depending how tired I am), so maybe I am wrong, but as a technician I see certain disparity here...
