Windows can turn your PC into a wireless hotspot, allowing it to share its wired or wireless Internet connection with other wireless devices. But how you set it up depends on what version of Windows you’re running. Here’s how it all works. N.B: If you can’t get the built-in Windows Wi-Fi hotspot working, you should try using Connectify Hotspot instead — it’s a completely foolproof Wi-Fi hotspot with tons of options and a nice interface Connectify Hotspot is great if you’re at a hotel that charges per device, or if you’re on a plane and you connect your laptop but don’t want to pay more to connect your phone. If you pay for the Pro version you can even use your PC as a Wi-Fi repeater or a wired router, or share a tethered connection off your phone It’s really more of a power user tool, but if you’re looking for a good solution, Hotspot is free to try out, and the basic version is free with some limitations.

DECISION MAKING (using Soccer analogy)

Neymar: If Messi has the ball I immediately run to the 18-yard area because I know he will cross the ball. Bale: If CR7 has the ball I immediately stop running because I know he won't pass to me.

CTOs are concerned with technology itself, whereas CIOs are much more concerned with its applications in the business and how this can be  MANAGED . More specifically,
