Product Description
Overview
Despite much talk about the cyber economy, information age, or the knowledge-based enterprise, as yet there are no generally accepted economic or financial principles to guide executives in spending money on computers.
The Squandered Computer offers a new perspective from which to interpret the economics of computerization. It explains the difference between promises and facts. It shows how misperceptions and negligence diminish the worth of perhaps the most potent tool, since the invention of fire, ever placed in the service of humanity.
