Exhibit 8.11 illustrates how the system works for a customer placing an order: The customer logs onto the website and types in an order for corrugated paper precisely cut and folded for 20,000 boxes. The order is downloaded into the database and computers at Corrugated’s factory determine the best way to blend that order with numerous other orders ranging from a few dozen boxes to 50,000.

A human operator checks the schedule on one of the numerous linked computer screens scattered around the plant and hits the Send button. Computer software
