Investors seeking dividend yield tend to look for stocks within a sector like utilities or financials. After all, these areas have historically been the best payers, and their business models lend themselves to reliable cash distributions. Income seekers don’t have to limit themselves to the obvious and typical dividend-paying industries, however — every industry has at least a handful of dividend stocks with healthy yields, including the technology sector.

To wit, here are five tech stocks with jaw-dropping dividend yields that even the most nervous of dividend lovers can feel comfortable owning: Giant Interactive Group (GA) Yield: 4.2%, STMicroelectronics NV (STM) Yield: 5.1%, Communications Systems (JCS) Yield: 5.5%, Concurrent Computer (CCUR) Yield: 6% and Mind C.T.I. Ltd. (MNDO) Yield: 11.2%.
