>> I bought Dell.............it builds its PCs in Austin........I think Round Rock, TX.

Dell has been a huge outsourcer over the years -- and had their outsourced call centers in India not been such a horrible failure in terms of customer service they wouldn't have any Americans doing it all today.

Building PCs in the US makes financial sense for them and that's why they do it. They have a long history of laying off American workers while ramping up Asia-Pacific jobs, etc.

Not that I have a problem with that. Businesses can and should do what is financially best for them.
