$61.1 billion Dell has appointed Ross Perot Jr., son of the former third-party presidential candidate, to its board of directors. He joins the board immediately and will stand for election by Dell shareholders at the company’s annual meeting next year.
Perot’s appointment comes one month after the computer maker bought technology-services provider, Perot Systems, on Nov. 3 for $3.9 billion, the largest acquisition in Dell’s history.
