I wanted to post a small update on the Dell situation I wrote about previously on 10/19/09. Dell is going to pay back $26 million of the more than $300 million in incentives given them for opening the plant in Winston-Salem, NC.

Again, let me state that even though I actually like Dell products a lot, I would encourage you to let Dell know that you don’t appreciate them taking these jobs away from US citizens. BOYCOTT DELL PRODUCTS!!!!

They are spending a great deal of money to take these jobs to Mexico and “other third party providers.” The folks in Winston were making pretty good salaries. Instead of going to all this trouble if they are making less money than they hoped, why not ask their employees there to take pay cuts temporarily? I bet they would rather than lose their jobs entirely.

Oh, and let me mention that Michael Dell is worth approximately $12.3 billion. Doesn’t he have enough yet? If I had that much money I bet I could come up with a better solution than the one he did for Winston-Salem. I’m just saying.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the quality of their products, won't it? Stay tuned.
