Lebanon, TN. - Dell plans to move jobs to from an Austin computer refurbishing plant to Lebanon, Tenn.

Round Rock-based Dell spokesman Venancio Figueroa says some Texas employees might even make the move with their jobs. But he says Dell will also hire from the surrounding Middle Tennessee area.

Figueroa said he didn't know how many jobs would be created at the Lebanon plant. But he says Dell employs fewer than 360 people in the Austin plant, which refurbishes returned computers and equipment.

Dell employs 1,000 people at a Lebanon computer assembly plant and 3,000 people at a distribution center and call center 26 miles to the west in Nashville.

Figueroa said the company was moving the jobs to Lebanon to reduce delivery times because the town is closer to most of Dell's customers.
