Dell Computer may open a plant down Mexico way By John Pletz American-Statesman Staff Monday, September 24, 2001 If you want a clue about where Dell Computer Corp. might be headed next, look to Mexico. Gov. Fernando Canales Clariond of Nuevo Len, whose capital is Monterrey, says Dell began exploring "a special project" with officials there about three months ago. Canales said he expects to "hear something soon" about it. He said he'd been asked by the company not to reveal any specifics. A move to Mexico would make sense for Dell. The main reason high-tech companies, like auto manufacturers before them, set up in Mexico is simple: cheap labor that is fairly close to home markets. That's especially important to computer makers, who have seen demand weaken and profits shrink. Sources within the company say Dell appears to have settled on a location near Monterrey. Another person outside the company, who is familiar with the project but spoke only on condition that he not be identified, also said Monterrey was on Dell's short list. austin360.com

Hi Kemble, I can say "Dell Rally". I can even say "Nazdaq Rally", but I thought I'd never have the chance to do so again <g>. There have been some very nice messages on the DELL.com and DELL.ca home pages since the Sept. 11 tragedy. Dell wants to show that they feel for the victims and are willing to do whatever they can as a good corporate citizen to help their clients get back on their feet again. They were also quicker off the mark than IBM, CPQ or HWP to express their sympathies on their home page. Makes me proud to own DELL! D.Plen
