Complete Chapter 2 Case Project 4 “Evaluate Vendor Support Sites” (pages 101-102 in the printed text). Feel free to evaluate other computer hardware vendors, providing they have customer support Web site, or use three of the ones listed in the project. As you compare three of the vendor support sites make sure you:
Include the URL of EACH company,
Address (at a minimum) the six questions shown in this exercise.
At the end of your document, include a final paragraph stating which of the three companies you chose seems to have the best customer service.
Find the mission statement for the one company you felt offered the best customer service (based on your evaluation of the support site), and note if customer service is a stated part of the corporate mission. If you are unable to find a mission statement, find some description of the company’s purpose or goals. (You may use a 3rd party site if you are unable to find this information on the company’s home page) Include both that statement, and the Web address where you found that statement in your closing paragraph.
You might also want to check for ratings of this company’s customer support on other websites (NOTE: Don’t look at ratings of specific products, only the company support). If you use other Web sites, make sure you include a citation as to where you obtained the information.
Spelling, grammar, correct citations, and content will all influence your project grade.

Question
Proper introduction and body and conclusion with References
Two or more references (One is book author and another one anyone)
Need three distinct questions from Chapter 4, 5 and 6.
In chapter 6, the author describes twelve disruptions to existing markets. Create a new thread, choose one of the disruptions discussed in chapter 6, and explain how you think it will impact today’s economy, and provide at least two real examples of the chosen disruption being realized with blockchain technology today.
Then think of threequestions you’d like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. The questions should be taken from material you read in Chapter 4, 5, or 6. You’re not trying to test each other, but you are trying to start a discussion.
You must do the following:
1) Create a new thread. As indicated above, choose one of the disruptions discussed in chapter 6, and explain how you think it will impact today’s economy, and provide at least two real examples of the chosen disruption being realized with blockchain technology today. Then think of three questions you’d like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. The questions should be taken from material you read in Chapter 4, 5, or 6. You’re not trying to test each other, but you are trying to start a discussion.
2) Select AT LEAST 3 other students’ threads and post substantive comments on those threads. Your comments should answer AT LEAST one of the questions posed in the thread and extend the conversation started with that thread. Make sure that you include the question in your comment so I can see what question you’re answering.
ALL original posts and comments must be substantive. (I’m looking for about a paragraph – not just a short answer.)
