Dell, Perry announce 500 engineering jobs:
“Austin and Central Texas is the largest engineering recruiting site by far,” Dell said, adding that Texas college graduates will compose nearly 10 percent of new recruits.

New jobs are likely to yield an annual income of $60,000 to $100,000.
Interesting, Dell is often criticised for not investing in technological innovation. They have often been seen as relying on manufacturing and business process (build to order system) innovation but not technological innovation. Maybe the recent stock price troubles have caused Dell to decide to invest in more technological innovation. Dell has stated they have greatly increase spending on customer service as a result of recent troubles.

Watch for more innovation — particularly in product design and useability — deeper customer relationships and moves to grow with emerging markets such as China, India, Brazil and Central Europe.
