In House Software normaly is software made for your necesities , it cost more because is made for your necesites. it is good because is really helpfull,just the things you need and is made the way you want, but it is also a problem because if you want a upgrade it going to cost, not a lot of documentation.

There are several software packages designed for use with retail sales, and several for consignment/resale sales.  Consignment Pro is one name that comes to mind.\n\nYou don't mention if you're in a business or not or what your needs really are, but you can check out both of these sites for further leads to software packages.

An application is generally specific to a particular system. Eg., say something like microsoft (MS) word is an application for MS windows.\n\nA program is in general not so specific, and can be a programmatic solution to any problem. Eg., program for calculating sum, printing tables, etc.\n\nHope this helped.

You need to find a person who knows both systems very well. \n\nUnfortunately, such a person probably doesn't exist.  Most people specialize in one or the other, and most M$ geeks only know M$ (sorry, but that's the truth).\n\nWorse yet, what is "better" overall might not work for your company.  For instance, I upgraded a client from an old version of Peachtree to a new one (better!) but we had to cancel that when we found out that the newer Peachtree had a limitation that we couldn't work around (worse!).\n\nEither system will probably work.  I don't like the fact that any M$ financial software locks me into M$ products, usually their latest-greatest only (so you have to upgrade Office, Exchange, etc when you upgrade the accounting software).  Oracle will probably run on servers of various platforms, which might be nice.  \n\nYour success will depend greatly on the people who do your install and configuration and migration and training.  Choose VERY carefully -- they will be de facto a part of your staff for years.\n\nAny accounting software change is hell... tell you accounting people that it will be at least a year of hell, during which time they'll develop drug and alcohol habits.  That way, when they only complain for 6 months you can tell them that you're ahead of schedule and the project is exceeding expectations.  I'm serious about this -- otherwise, people (like the computer guy) will get fired at the 3-4 month mark!!!!

Hardware is something you can touch, software is computer program which is stored on a piece of hardware. :)

Commercial software is normally something you have to buy to use.\n\nShareware is software you can use and share for free, but normally has a restriction on it. Like a 30 trial or a splash screen.\n\nOpen source software is free to take and share. It allows the user to see the original code used to write the program.\n\nFreeware is completly free and free to share. It will not allow the user to see the code.\n\nAs for somine, I'm not sure if there is such a thing.\n\nHope this helps

Because some sofwares requires changes to be done to the hardware and you have to restart the system for that to happen. But the newer OS are more intelligent in most cases, so, they do no require the system to be restarted while others don't require any change regarding to the hardware.

It is software NOT made by your computer manufacturer or operating system maker.

Hello Friend! \n Without hardware, software is not possible and without  software, hardware is not possible. They mutually depend on each other.

"Computer software (or simply software) refers to any of the various programs by which a computer controls aspects of its operations, such as those for translating data from one form to another, as contrasted with hardware, which is the physical equipment comprising the installation. The term is roughly synonymous with computer program but is more generic in scope. In most computers, the moment-to-moment control of the machine resides in a special software program called an operating system, or supervisor. "

Software that your computers operating system needs to operate. You should not need to mess with these. Just pretend they dont exist

For the same reason you have to up-date everything else. We live in a fast changing (IT) world and though most software is "down" compatible, it never will be "up" compatible except via an update.

The computer makers get paid to put software on the new systems, you would think they would at least throw in a quick start guide.\n\nThe best way, is to Google the questioned software, get to their homepage an go from there. With any luck, there will be a PDF file you can store on your system for future use.
