more efficiently than adults? Perhaps it is just that they were born into
the technology. Learn what those “mysterious” guts of your computer actually

computer, knowing the terms used and the functions of the various components

technology and theory to simple, 'plain people' speak terms. If you can

your computer. Be prepared to laugh during the presentation, AND at your
next holiday dinner.

more fully utilize available technologies to increase business or gain an
edge over their competition. After accepting this fact, where do you go?
What do you need? Should you call in a field expert? Should you buy more
equipment or just throw away your calculator and fax machine in favor of
paper and pencil and smoke signals? Learn how to evaluate your business
needs, plan your equipment purchases during different phases of your
business to build upon a base instead of wasting money, and integrate your
Business and Marketing Plans with your own Technology Plan. USE the
technologies before they abuse you.
