Introduction
Computerization has changed the way business is conducted the world over. No aspect of business has remained untouched by the information technology (IT) revolution. This is especially true of international business where people located in different parts of the world conduct transactions with each other. The activities of international business include manufacturing, in-land transportation, customs and excise matters, port operation, shipping, clearing and forwarding, etc. During the course of these transactions, a large number of documents are created and exchanged, many of these documents or the information contained therein is repeated, while creating and mailing these documents before the advent of IT., hundreds of man-hours would be lost in repetitive operation, innovations in IT have revolutionized international business; the use of technology in managing and processing information. Especially in large organizations helps save time, bring down costs, and reduce manpower, manual data input and transfer has now become not only obsolete, but also irrational.
Areas
In international business today, IT finds maximum utility in the following areas:
1. Electronic procurement
2. Electronic marketing

ROLE OF BUSINESS PROCESS REENGINEERING IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY:
BUSINESS PROCESS RE ENGINEERING:
Business Process Reengineering as the technique that concentrates on the process to bring about radical change in the organization facilitating dramatic improvement in performance in core business processes which are critical for competitive advantage. The main idea of Business Process Re engineering is reinventing the organization for increasing performance.
ROLE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN REENGINEERING:
Information technology is the technology of sensing, coding, transmitting, translating and transforming. The information technology is an integral part of reengineering a an enabler, since it permits companies to reengineer a business process. IT capabilities should support business processes, and business process should be in terms of the capabilities IT can provide.
IT plays an important role by either enabling or constraining successful BPR. IT can also become an inhibitor of reengineering if the organization’s IT infrastructure is inadequate or inflexible. The role of IT is to make a new process design possible. IF nothing changes about the way work is done and the role of IT is simply to automate an existing process, then economic benefits are likely to be minimal.
As a business consultant, web designer and photographer my technical know-how around doing system administration on my Microsoft desktop is limited and sometimes I do require the assistant of my computer engineering son to get it right. In a Microsoft Environment, keeping updated with respect to potential security breaches and patches is a constant vigil. The rigor of keeping current with OS updates, Norton updates and Spyware updates is time consuming. Valuable business hours each week are spend and lost on this task of self-administration dictated by the Microsoft Operating Environment.
So with the purchase of an IBM T40 (a tough notebook), increasing system administration time was not an option. This alone forced an serious consideration of Linux as an alternative operating environment. That was five years ago. Now an established Linux user, I can clearly profess the capabilities and benefits of Linux for small and large businesses, especially, when it comes to notebook deployment.
What Linux variant is best for small business and notebook deployment in your company?
As a small and medium business development manager with Sun Microsystems, exposure to Linux and the debate around its viability was a daily event. Questioning and challenging the virtues of Open Source (FREE) Linux versus Licensed Linux versions like Red Hat and Novell SuSE continues to this day . After years of personal use of Open Source (Free) Linux, I can never go back to running the Microsoft Operating Environment on my notebook. And once you can get Linux versions of Quick books, Quick Tax and Picasa (now available on Linux), there is no reason to stay in that perpetual administrative nightmare world of Microsoft.
