...are, and the reasons why the acts were created. Discuss the differences between the Article 2 of the UCC and the UCITA. Determine the distinction between selling a product and licensing that product legally. Discuss the reasoning for drafters to propose a separate and distinct uniform act. UCC and UCITA Act UCC stands for Uniform Commercial Code, and that is a code that addresses the majority of aspects of commercial law. (No Author, 2011) UCITA stands for Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, and that code is to regulate transactions in computer information products. But before the UCC and the UCITA act there was the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. The act was put in place to normalize railroads that saturated the states boundaries. (U.S. News, 2012) Even though each one of the acts are different and provide different provisions, they all have something in common, they all create a better way to provide uniformity in commercial law between states. The Uniform Computer Information Transaction (UCITA) act started out as an amendment to article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), but there were so many disagreements with the amendment, that it was decided to rename it the UCITA and to keep it moving as a separate act, and it was approved in February 2000. (Andersen, Raymakers, & Reichenthal, 2001) The difference between selling a product and licensing a product is when you are selling a product it is a product that has gone through licensing and...

...U.S. government in regulating commerce. It supplies Congress with the sanction to regulate not only business, but any interaction conducted between organizations situated in different States (Gibbons v. Ogden (1824)). This authority encompasses all areas of interstate commerce (radio, telephone, waterways, highways). This also incorporates intrastate handling that has a collective and significant influence on interstate trade (employment, agricultural, and housing prejudice). * Based on the information presented above, what do you see as the major differences between Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code and UCITA? Article 2 of the UCC is designed to expedite the sale, consignment and distribution of tangible products. A tangible product is one in which you can touch or feel (Robyn Spelts. June 24, 2011). The purpose of Article 2 is to bring sales law closer to the needs and practices of businessmen. The UCITA is anticipated to simplify the authorizing of intangible computer-related property, with a prominence on allowing proprietors of software the capability to preserve domination over their possessions eternally. An intangible product (that still also counts as a product in the business marketing mix) is one that cannot be touched. Examples of this are commercials, repair work, and tax preparation. Other examples of products are places and ideas (Robyn Spelts. June 24, 2011). The concern comes from the overwhelming power of the software designer and the lack of...

...Data Storage and Architecture Kaplan University Introduction Commerce is the conducting of business; it could be buying, selling, marketing, or providing services. The newer forms of commerce are electronic commerce (e-commerce) and mobile commerce (m-commerce). The types of e-commerce are business-to-business, business-to-consumer, and consumer-to-consumer. The traditional commerce practice required consumers to buy at a retail location, order from catalogs over the phone, or fill out order forms to mail in. These processes where lengthy and inconvenient to consumers needing products fast or even business needing a rush order could still take weeks. E-commerce emerged eliminating the long processes of ordering and waiting on receipt of order, then processing; to just clicking buttons and shipment within hours or days. E-commerce and M-commerce have many benefits to businesses and consumers but as with any great thing there are challenges. In attempting to implement a multi-stage model for e-commerce with global systems, the key challenges are; cultural, language, time and distance, infrastructure, currency, and state, regional, and national laws. Cultural challenges Culture includes difference in morals and beliefs, language, currency, laws and the way individuals as well as businesses function. Cultural challenges occur when the major understandings and assumptions of the business leaders is different from the consumer or other business, in which business is to be conducted...

...and practical commerce and be technologically neutral. Can you create a new computer chip design it , bubble wrap it and ship it for sale and still have ownership of that computer chip? With the Uniform Commercial Code and Uniform computer Information Transaction Act they will shed light of how you are protected by the government. Not just consumers but business are govern a like . . Before the UCC and the UCITA, the first U.S attempt to promote uniformity in commercial laws from state to state is the commerce clause. The commerce clause of the constitution, provides congress with authority to regulate business in different states. The commerce clause extends to all instrumentalities of interstate commerce as well as to intrastate conduct that has substantial effect on interstate commerce. The UCITA is intended to facilitate the licensing of computer related intellectual property, with an emphasis on permitting owners of software the ability to maintain control over their intellectual property forever. The UCC is designed to facilitate the sale, shipment and delivery of tangible goods identified in a contract. The biggest difference I see between UCITA and UCC is UCITA gives the software designer control of their property even after sale of their property, where as the UCC is only concern with getting the product to the consumer. After I the consumer buy a computer I wouldn’t want Sony to come to my home and tell me they have to take their...

Craig TUI University ITM 501 The Basics Of Online Tech Support In this paper I will share my experiences of On-Line Tech Support and the adventures of getting problems solved through the use of the Internet. First, I selected the main purpose for my search of on-line tech support. Since I was having problems with my computer with its daily operations, I felt that there was nowhere to turn but to reboot the computer and start from scratch. However, I was not to keen on the idea of erasing all my data and starting over and thought that perhaps there was another way to fix my issues. I used the on-line tech support web site www.Help.com. After searching the Internet for an interesting or catchy home page of Internet tech support, I stumbled upon help.com. I read the intro page and look under some of the discussions and decided to enter the domain and ask my help question. Which was, “ how do you erase your computers data and start all over?” After being prompted to sign up for the account and agreeing to the user agreement options. I started off by reading previous post, for ideas of answers and posted dialogue that was being shared. Unfortunately my question was not asked previous and I had to venture out on my own to request the answer. This website and the postings at this website where...
