Dell moves jobs to Poland:

Dell, the American computer giant, today delivered a further blow to Ireland's faltering economy when it announced plans to axe 1,900 jobs and shut down production in Limerick, its largest manufacturing plant outside the US.

The US multi-national confirmed it will end production at its Limerick factory in favour of a new facility and cheaper workforce in Poland. Dell said the move was part of a $3 billion global cost-cutting drive announced last year.
