.... from the use of computers. First a company must research the impact a computer will have on keeping track of its accounts. Then they must choose the correct hardware and software that's best for their needs, while at the same time making themselves familiar with the new enhancements that increase productivity. Finally, the company must allow time for installation and training. When looking at the need to change from a manual accounting system to a computerized accounting system you also need to look at the future demands of your company. How do you know when it is time to make the change? When your company has grown so large that it no l .....

.... Bednorz were working at the IBM Research Division in Zurich, Switzerland. They found a material that reached superconductivity at around 35 degrees Kelvin or –238 degrees Celsius. In the next year, a team of Chinese-American physicists declared that they had found a material that reached superconductivity at 92 degrees Kelvin. This was a big improvement. 92 degrees Kelvin is not a very high temperature, in fact, it is the equivalent of –181 degrees Celsius. Locating superconducting material above 77 degree Kelvin is a good thing because it means that the material will be easily produced and used. A theoretical understanding of superconductivity .....

.... reports, and resumes. With a word processor, one can easily revise a document. To improve the accuracy of one's writing, word processors can check the spelling and the grammar in a document. They also provide a thesaurus to enable a user to add variety and precision to his or her writing. Many word processing programs also provide desktop publishing features to create brochures, advertisements, and newsletters. An electronic spreadsheet enables a user to organize data in a fashion similar to a paper spreadsheet. The difference is the user does not have to perform calculations manually; electronic spreadsheets can be instructed to perform any co .....

.... the obligation to restrict the materials available through it. Though it appears to have sprung up overnight, the inspiration of free-spirited hackers, it in fact was born in Defense Department Cold War projects of the 1950s.2 The United States Government owns the Internet and has the responsibility to determine who uses it and how it is used. The government must control what information is accessible from its agencies. This material is not lawfully available through the mail or over the telephone, there is no valid reason these perverts should be allowed unimpeded on the Internet. Since our initiative, the industry has commendably advanced some b .....

.... These are the boys who would come to be known as the "MOD BOYS" (Masters of Deception). They were the hacker gang who dominated the hacking underworld back in the late 1980s. They all met through the phone lines. Back then there was no Internet or AOL yet people could still communicate through computers. All they needed was a modem and some phone #'s of other modems and they were in business. Paul met Eli first. They learned to hack together. After a while they started looking for bigger and better hacks. They came across a famous hacker named Phiber Optic (Mark). He taught them all he knew about the telephone company. Then they w .....

.... Transfers of technology from the developed world to the developing world will improve the standard of living, increase efficiency in production and become a base for economic growth, without this transfer these countries will fall further into poverty and economic ruin, with little hope for survival. For most people of the developed world, the developing world is not something they concern themselves with; they do not see it everyday and therefore it does not exist. This could not be farther from the truth. The developing world is in need of help but the developed world constantly turns a blind eye. Our current love affair with technology may provide .....

.... whatever place value the beads were in), and the bottom part had five beads and each bead had a value of one (same goes for these as well). As the origin is not known as to whom may have made the invention and since may ancient empires used it, some of the first to use it were the Chinese and so the credit has been given to them. Another invention that comes from the abacus and was used in a similar fashion was the soraban. The soraban comes from the Japanese who perfected it to there use. The soraban is slightly different in the fact that it has one bead on the top part or each place value, and has only five beads in each place value on the b .....

.... planes, giving them an advantage in plane-to-plane combat as well as air-to-ground attacks. Radar works on a relatively simple theory. It's one that everybody has experienced in their lifetime. Radar works much like an echo. In an echo, a sound is sent out in all directions. When the sound waves find an object, such as a cliff face, they will bounce back to the source of the echo. If you count the number of seconds from when the sound was made to when the sound was heard, you can figure out the distance the sound had to travel. The formula is: (S/2) X 1100 = D (Half of the total time times 1100 feet per second equals the distance from t .....

.... travel at 8.2 pounds: at 1.8 inches thick, it's thin. The battery lasted 2:59, and the unit was a great performer. Other features include a 3.9 GB hard disk and an optional DVD module for $150. Sub-notebooks such as IBM Think Pad 600 packs a high-end punch into a 6.5-pound travel weight, including a Pentium II/266 CPU, a 13.3-TFT screen, and a 3.9 GB hard disk. The unit can take a CD-ROM, DVD, or floppy disk drive internally ideal for those who need supreme portability and don't want to deal with external drives. It lasted an impressive 3:12 on our test. For the road warrior principally concerned with weight, and battery life, there is still no bett .....

.... a sound is stored on a computer it said to be digitized. There are two main ways of digitizing a picture. One is by vector graphics. Here the information in the picture is stored as mathematical equations. Engineering drawing applications such as CAD (computer assisted device) use this method. The other method is by bit mapped graphics. Here the computer actually keeps track of every point in the picture and its description. Paint programs use this technique. Drawing programs are usually vector mapped programs and paint programs are usually bit mapped. Computer sound is handled in two different ways. The sound can be described digitally and st .....
