In this interesting case study, I learned what kind of effects IT can have on businesses. Overall, I believe that the partnership between IT and the business at Hefty Hardware has its miscommunication issues. They can be effective with the right help from executives by making sure that each does their attended workload and not mixing and matching by having the IT department work cross functionally.

Secondly, I will assess one of Descartes’ main arguments of the roots of knowledge and God’s role with this, and finally I will speak about Descartes’ ontological…
