SALEM, N.H. (AP) — A computer networking company has completed its move from Massachusetts back to New Hampshire, bringing with it 600 jobs.

Enterasys announced a year ago it was moving out of Andover, Mass., to Salem, N.H. The Eagle-Tribune in North Andover (http://bit.ly/VyMpih ) says the computer networking giant last week completed its three-week move.

Enterasys is a spinoff of Cabletron Systems, which was founded by former New Hampshire Gov. Craig Benson and business partner Robert Levine in Levine’s Rochester garage in 1983.

Company spokesman Vala Afsha says the move was a chore, but it was welcomed by employees. He says many of them still live in New Hampshire and will no longer have to pay Massachusetts income taxes.
