Consider a small business you patronize. Could it operate without automated information systems? Why or why not? Explain and defend your position. Your initial discussion board post should be at least 200-250 words in length and should use at least two resources as support. One resource may be your textbook and the second must be outside research. Use APA citation to properly credit your supporting material. You should also include a descriptive subject line in this initial post. After your post, respond substantially and academically to two peers in writing on the discussion.
