Summary: Too Much Guesswork?
Comment: I used this book in as a simulation in my Business Strategy class at HLG. I think that the simulation was basically useless because there was entirely too much guesswork involved. There is no mention of what type of product is being manufactured, only that is made out of plastic. When making decisions such as how much to invest in product quality it would have helped quite a bit to know the specific type of product being produced. For example, quality is for more important when producing laptop computer cases than when producing toy army men. I think that the lack of specific information concerning the product and the market are the downfall of this book. The simulation would have been far more enjoyable and beneficial if informed decisions could be made.

Summary: Threshold Competitor
Comment: I thought that this textbook satisfied our needs of what our tasks were for the course. At first the book was somewhat difficult to understand, but after reading through various parts several times, I began to get a feel of what was to be expected to compete with the other companies.

Summary: Nice try.
Comment: I thought that this simulation was a good shot at getting as close to the real world without going out into it. I think that there were parts that could have been perfected but over all it was a good simulation and I would recomend it to other buisness majors. I enjoyed the competiton that it created and it was fun getting the results back to see who was on top each time.
