Abstract: | The paper states that the hot pace of office technology has cooled a bit. Although every new computer model runs faster than its immediate predecessor, we've reached a momentary technology plateau of sorts: Now, even 2- year-old hardware is powerful and stable enough for most office applications. And the majority of professional software packages-from tax preparation and accounting to time-and-billing and write-ups-have undergone enough upgrades and bug fixes that they now generally work flawlessly, providing a major boost in CPAs' productivity. The paper also provides a substantial list of references on this subject. |
