Offshore Strategies

According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.

Microsoft The Walrus's column (December SR) on union strategies for combating offshoring was interesting on a number of levels.

laptop computers is driving strong sales for notebook computers, according to the latest quarterly sales figures from the research firm IDC, which reported a 37% computer sales for the second quarter, compared with a year earlier. In the U.S., laptop sales grew 17.7%, while sales of desktop computers and servers fell 4%. The New York Times ( 10), CNET ( 10)

Laptop Computers It is certainly true that there are numbers of differing views within the trade union movement as to how we approach this issue, and that there is a real danger of opening up arguments which can be misconstrued as arguing for 'British jobs for British workers' and give credibility to the far right or racist agendas. A number of unions have unfortunately given room in their propaganda for these arguments to come to the fore, but crucially these have been challenged by activists on the ground.

"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."

My own union's starting point for the agreement which the Walrus commends was that we needed to take an internationalist approach which put the globalisation of resistance centrally as part of our response to the globalisation of capitalism.

This, together with a guarantee of no compulsory redundancies and retraining for Britain-based workers on long term 'high value' work and union negotiation surrounding any work that was planned to leave, were the interdependent strands of the agreement.

Keith Flett (Letters, January SR) is, of course, right that we would support any strike action against offshoring and challenge any 'little Englander' arguments.

Amicus has talked about strike action to protect jobs. The one guarantee is that 'offshoring' will not go away and that this will remain a central issue for unions that organise in the IT and call centre industries.
