The Burden Of Technology

Stanley P. Jaskiewicz

Businesses invest in technology to save money. They hope that the latest invention will live up to the marketers' claims of efficiencies over old ways of doing business. <br>But paradoxically, when "computing" the savings, don't forget the extra costs ' the "technology burden" as it's called ' imposed by innovation, whether cutting edge or mainstream.
