Answer to the Question No-1
Information System is not just about computer and not just a job for a computer specialist. Information systems the term contains more and need more then only just computing. A computer specialist maybe good at database, administration, networking and other hardware activities but they might not know about managing the information system. So when it comes to managing we are going to need a manager and in this case we need a system manager for linking up the computing and the information system together. So I do not agree with the term that Information systems are too important to be left to computer specialists.
