Computer Hardware Platforms
The microprocessor is the heart of any computing device no matter how small or large. Two
companies produce most micro processing chips: Intel and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). The
most popular and widely known is Intel. (However, when you're shopping for a new computer
you should consider the AMD processor. It's as good as the Intel chip and tends to be a little cheaper. Benchmark tests of the AMD chip against the Intel Celeron chip proved that the AMD chip was superior in performance.)

Operating System Platforms
Operating systems tell computers what to do, when to do it, and how. Operations such as
logging on, file management, and network connectivity are controlled by the operating system. By far the most prolific operating system is Microsoft Windows in various versions. Windows is also the operating system used by some non-traditional computing devices such as hand-held PDAs and cell phones.

Enterprise Software Applications
Integrating applications into seamless processes across the organization is the goal of
enterprise software applications. Customer relationship management and supply chain
management systems are the two most popular applications in this category. We explore them
more extensively in later chapters.
