Abstract

Large corporations were stung by the computer bug in the 1960s, and now small, family-owned businesses are being bitten. Most people feel left behind if their business doesn't have a computer, but buying one can actually be worse than resisting the urge to go with the crowd. The low costs of computers are elusive: The ad may say $500, but a business “starter” system is probably closer to $5,000, and the problems caused by a computer can cost $50,000. If s possible not to get stung if you are reasonably careful and ask the right questions. This article shows you how to start.
