What is the difference between CAM and CAD?
Also would you say in today's technology based world that marketing through the internet, which is free, is the most profitable option for a company? If so then why is it taking so many companies to update to internet advertising?

Thank you,
Courtney

I was a little confused when looking back over the slides and I know you mentioned it in class but I seemed to not have written it down in my notes, the difference between E-business and E-commerce is that E-commerce is a part of E-business?
Also I was interested in finding out which makes more money for the company, cross-selling or up-selling?

Thank you,
Courtney

Why would someone spend more money for a coaxial cable versus a twisted pair wire when one costs more but both can be tapped? It seems like a frivilous spend... If someone really wanted security, wouldn't they just buy a fiber-optic cable?

I was highly interested in the Internet2. I did a presentation about it at my old university where we were on the Internet2 at USF. Is Chapman University on the Internet2? Do you have to pay though if you are a university to join the internet2?

Thank you,
Courtney

The exam was relatively difficult with all of these essays and very specific language that can fool you on the True and False questions. I was so upset since I was studying last night and was trying to go over everything but there was just too much stuff for me to put on a studying guide and so I left out the object definition… ugh I felt horrible for not writing it down! Anyways I think I did relatively well despite the huge amount of information that was gone over.

Going over Access again was really helpful and it was great for reminding me what I did last time and all the necessary steps to get everything done. Also it was great to know how to make a report and form. Those can be really helpful for a business. Overall, Access is a great system to know!

This class was extremely interesting and helpful for business. I have gone over this once in a previous class but the way you went over it was so much better. It is a rather hard concept to learn since there are so many different things to remember but overall I am extremely happy with learning and how you taught Access.

Thank you,
Courtney

Chapt 5 Sec 2

In class we discussed managing data resources. It was interesting to look at the different data systems but I was wondering even though we don't need to know what is a duplication and a replication system? and how are they different. I also thought it was important to note data redundancy but I feel that would be one of the hardest problem to manage… It is one of the important things to note when looking at problems in systems.

Thank you,
Courtney

I really appreciate you taking more time to go over the chapter during class time. It helps to just have a little more time processing the information flying by even with having read the book.
With Database structures (hierarchal, network, and relational), which one would you say is the best to use? I mean I know that each have a characteristics that makes one better than the other  but in a organization setting would relational be the best?

Thank you,

Tuesday class

On one of the case studies I was unable to hear what the answer was to one of the questions. "What is the business value of XML to the organizations described in the case?" If you could answer that for me, I would greatly appreciate it. Sometimes it is hard for me to hear in the back but that's what I get for coming to class right on time...
Also I was curious, out of all the internet access links such as firefox, safari, internet explorer, etc., which onw would you say is the best? I had a IT professor once tell me that firefox is horrible...

Thank you,
Courtney Taylor
