Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
     We have acted as counsel to Perot Systems Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of 7,475,000 shares of the
Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"),
as described in the Registration Statement of the Company on Form S-1 (No.
333-60755) as supplemented by a subsequent registration statement filed pursuant
to Rule 426(b) under the Act (together, the "Registration Statement") filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon effectiveness, the Company proposes
to sell such shares to the underwriters (the "Underwriters") listed in the final
Prospectus (the "Prospectus") that forms a part of the Registration Statement.
 
     In rendering this opinion, we have examined and relied upon executed
originals, counterparts or copies of such documents, records and certificates
(including certificates of public officials and officers of the Company) as we
considered necessary or appropriate for enabling us to express the opinions set
forth herein. In all such examinations, we have assumed the authenticity and
completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to
originals and completeness of all documents submitted to us as photostatic,
conformed, notarized or certified copies.
 
     Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Common Stock, when
issued and sold to the Underwriters as described in the Registration Statement,
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
 
     This opinion may be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. We
also consent to the reference to this firm as having passed on the validity of
the Common Stock under the caption "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus. In giving
this consent, we do not admit that we are included in the category of persons
whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.
 
                                            Very truly yours,
 
                                            /s/ HUGHES & LUCE, L.L.P.

                       CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
     We consent to the inclusion in this Registration Statement on Form S-1 of
our reports dated December 18, 1998 (except for Note 18 as to which the date is
January 7, 1999), and March 25, 1998, on our audits of the consolidated
financial statements and financial statement schedule, respectively, of Perot
Systems Corporation and Subsidiaries. We also consent to the references to our
firm under the captions "Experts", "Summary Consolidated Financial Data" and
"Selected Consolidated Financial Data."
