ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

It is my earnest and sincere desire and ambition to acquire profound knowledge in the study of management studies. I have had considerable help to advice at very outset of this project. It is my pleasure to acknowledge the help and guidance that I had received from that personnel and to thank them individually.

First of all, I express my sincere thanks to Dr. (Mrs.) Meeta Pathade, I/C Principal for having given me a chance to undergo the project work. Secondly, I convey my sincere thanks to the Course Coordinator Mrs. Byshi Panikar for her valuable suggestions and co-operation which helped me to complete the project successfully. The compilation of the project is a milestone in the life of the management student and its execution is inevitable without the co-operation of the project guide. I am deeply grateful to my project guide Mr. Prashant Kokane for his valuable ideas, required suggestions and encouragement for refining this project study. Finally, I thank all the staff members and my friends for their valuable support and contribution to my project.

Executive Summary
Using a computer to write about computers is like searching for google on google! C omputer technology is so much a part of our lives, that we cannot imagine a life without it. Computers serve as efficient data storage systems and excellent information processors. They can store, organize and manage huge amounts of data. Moreover, they operate on incomparable speeds, thus saving human time and effort to a large extent. True, they are an integral part of our lives. It is said that inventions change the way we live. Computer technology is a classic example of this adage. It has indeed changed our way of living. There are 2 companies which had covered a huge market of the world. Those companies are Microsoft Corporation Apple Inc.
