only type of security entitled to vote at the Meeting.  On the Record Date for
determining shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting, there were 5,448,037
shares of Common Stock outstanding.  Each shareholder of record on the Record
Date is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock then held.  Shares
of Common Stock may not be voted cumulatively.  All votes will be tabulated by
the Registrar and Transfer Company, the Company's stock transfer agent, who
will tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes
prior to the Meeting.  The Company's Chief Financial Officer will be the
inspector of elections for the Meeting and determine the validity of the
tabulation, including those shares voted or changed at the Meeting.

Quorum Required

     The Company's Bylaws provide that the holders of a majority of the issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock (2,724,019), present in person or
represented by valid proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business at the Meeting.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as
present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.
Vote Required

                                       1

          PROPOSAL ONE:  Directors are elected by a plurality of the
     affirmative votes cast by those shares present in person or represented by
     proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting.  The eight nominees for
     director positions receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will
     be elected.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted toward a
     nominee's total.

          PROPOSALS TWO, THREE and FOUR:  Passage of each other proposal to be
     considered by shareholders will require an affirmative vote by the holders
     of a majority of those shares present in person or represented by proxy,
     and which are cast either affirmatively or negatively at the Meeting.  As
     in the case of Proposal One, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be
     counted as having been voted on any such proposal.

     The current directors and executive officers of the Company and their
affiliates are expected to be the beneficial owners, as of the Record Date, of
657,441 shares (or approximately 12.1% of the outstanding shares) of Common
Stock.  Each has indicated an intention to vote in favor of Proposals One, Two
and Three.

Voting of Shares

     If your shares of Common Stock are registered directly in your name with
the Company's transfer agent, you are considered, with respect to those shares,
the shareholder of record, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to
you by the Company.  As the shareholder of record, you have the right to vote
in person at the Meeting or to grant your voting proxy directly to the Company
or another proxy holder.  The Company has enclosed a proxy card for you to use.

     If your shares are held in a brokerage account, or by another nominee, you
are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, and these
proxy materials are being forwarded to you, together with a voting instruction
card, by your broker or other nominee.  As the beneficial owner, you have the
right to direct your broker or other nominee how to vote and are also invited
to attend the Meeting.  Your broker or other nominee has enclosed or provided
voting instructions for you to use in directing the broker or other nominee bow
to vote your shares.

     Shares of Common Stock held in a shareholder's name as the shareholder of
record may be voted in person at the Meeting.  Shares of Common Stock held
beneficially in street name may be voted in person only if you obtain a legal
proxy from the broker or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the
right to vote the shares.

     Whether you hold shares directly as the shareholder of record or
beneficially in street name, you may direct how your shares are voted without
attending the Meeting.  If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by
submitting a proxy.  If you hold shares beneficially in street name, you may
vote by submitting voting instructions to your broker or other nominee.

     Whether or not you are able to attend the Meeting, you are urged to
complete and return your proxy or voting instructions, which are being
solicited by the Board of Directors and which will be voted as you direct on
your proxy or voting instructions when properly completed.  In the event no
directions are specified, such proxies and voting instructions will be voted
FOR the nominees for election to the Board of Directors as set forth in
Proposal One below, FOR each of Proposals Two and Three, and in the discretion
of the proxy holders as to other matters that may properly come before the
Meeting.  You may also revoke or change your proxy  or voting instructions at
any time before the Meeting.  To revoke your proxy, please send a written
notice of revocation or another signed proxy with a later date to the Chief
Financial Officer of the Company at the Company's principal executive offices
before the beginning of the Meeting.  You may also automatically revoke your
proxy by attending the Meeting and voting in person.  To revoke your voting
instructions, please submit new voting instructions to your broker or other
nominee, or, if your have obtained a legal proxy from your broker or other
nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the meeting and
voting in person.  All shares represented by a valid proxy received prior to
the Meeting will be voted.

shall consist of not less than three members and may be composed of such higher
number as may be fixed from time to time by action of the Board of Directors or
of the shareholders.  The Board recommends that the exact number of directors
not be determined by shareholder action, thus permitting the Board to increase
or decrease the number of directors during the year and to fill any vacancy, as
it deems advisable to do so.  The Board is currently comprised of six members.

nominees, the shares represented by Board of Directors proxies properly
executed and timely received will be voted for the election as Directors of the
eight nominees named below, six of whom presently serve in that capacity.  If
any such nominee fails to stand for election for any reason, the proxy will be
voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board of Directors.  The Board
has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unavailable to serve if
elected.  The nominees listed below, if elected, will serve a one-year term,
expiring on the date of the annual meeting of shareholders in 2004.  Certain
information with respect to each nominee is hereafter set forth:

Chastelet and Poad constitute its remaining members.

Director Compensation

     Directors who are also salaried employees of the Company do not receive
any additional cash compensation for serving as a director.  Non-employee
directors receive $500 for each committee meeting and $1,500 for each full
board meeting they attend with the Audit Committee Chairman receiving an
additional $500 per such meeting.  The Company also grants non-qualified stock
options and, in some instances, incentive stock options to certain Directors.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" EACH OF THE EIGHT NOMINEES
LISTED ABOVE.


                       PROPOSAL TWO - RATIFICATION OF
                     SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

     For the 20th consecutive year, the Company's Board of Directors has
selected the independent certified public accounting firm of KPMG LLP to
perform audit and related functions with respect to the Company's accounts for
its fiscal year ending March 31, 2004.  The Board recommends ratification of
its selection.   In the event the shareholders fail to ratify the appointment,
the Board of Directors will reconsider its selection, and even if ratification
occurs, the Board, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different
independent accounting firm at any time during the fiscal year if it determines
that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its
shareholders.

                                       6


     One or more representatives of KPMG LLP will be in attendance at the
Meeting to respond to appropriate shareholder questions and to have an
opportunity to make any statement which they may care to address to the
attending shareholders.

Audit Fees

     Audit fees billed the Company by KPMG LLP for the audit of the Company's
annual financial statements for fiscal year 2003 and the review of the
quarterly financial statements included in the Company's quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q for that fiscal year totaled approximately $82,500.

Audit-Related Fees

     KPMG LLP billed the Company $7,500 during the Company's 2003 fiscal year
for the audit of its 401(k) Plan for the period ended December 31, 2001.

Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees

     No financial information systems design and implementation services were
provided to the Company by KPMG LLP during the Company's 2003 fiscal year.

All Other Fees

     KPMG LLP also billed the Company $11,390 for income tax preparation for
the Company's 2002 tax year.  No other fees were billed the Company except as
is mentioned herewith.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE RATIFICATION OF THE
SELECTION OF KPMG LLP TO SERVE AS THE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING MARCH 31, 2004.


          PROPOSAL THREE - TO APPROVE AN INCREASE OF 300,000 SHARES
      TO BE RESERVED UNDER THE COMPANY'S 2000 LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

     The Company is asking its shareholders to approve an increase of 300,000
shares to be reserved for future issuance under the Company's 2000 Long Term
Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan").  The Incentive Plan was originally
approved by shareholder action at the annual meeting held in August 2000, and
provides for the grant of both tax-qualified "incentive" stock options and non-
qualified stock options to acquire shares of Common Stock.  The Incentive Plan
will remain in effect as long as any awards made thereunder are outstanding.
If approved, the proposed increase will raise to 600,000 the total number of
shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, and will provide the basis for
future long-term compensation awards by means of stock option grants.  To date,
298,250 shares of Common Stock have been made the subject of previous option
grants.   Approval of the increase is believed by management to be critical to
the Company's ability to attract and retain highly motivated and qualified
employees and directors, particularly in the competitive labor market that
currently exists.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS BELIEVES THAT APPROVAL OF THE 300,000 SHARE
INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF SHARES TO BE RESERVED FOR FUTURE ISSUANCE UNDER THE
2000 LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF ALL SHAREHOLDERS AND,
ACCORDINGLY, RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" SUCH INCREASE.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of The Exchange Act

     The members of the Company's Board of Directors and its executive
officers, as well as persons who own more than ten per cent of the Company's
outstanding shares of Common Stock are subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act ("Section 16(a)"), which require them to file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports with respect to their
ownership of Common Stock and their transactions therein.  Based upon (i) the
copies of Section 16(a) reports that the Company received from such persons for
their fiscal year 2003 transactions in the Common Stock and their Common Stock
holdings, and (ii) the written representations received from one or more of
such persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed by them
for fiscal year 2003, the Company believes that all reporting requirements
under Section 16(a) were met in a timely manner by all such persons except that
Form 4 filings arising from stock options, each for 5,000 shares, granted on
March 20, 2003, respectively, to Messrs. Chastelet, Murphy and Poad, at an
exercise price of $2.33, were filed some eight days after the due date.

multiplied by the applicable number of options.  No cash is realized until the
shares received upon exercise of an option are sold.

(8)  Options are "in-the-money" at the fiscal year end if the fair market value
of the underlying securities on such date exceeds the exercise price of the
option.

(9)  These amounts represent the difference between the exercise price of such
stock options and the closing price of the Company's stock on March 31, 2003.


Compensation Committee Report

     The Compensation Committee (the "Committee") has the authority to
establish the level of base salary payable to the Chief Executive Officer (the
"CEO") and the other executive officers of the Company and to administer the
Company's 2000 Long Term Incentive plan.  In addition, the Committee has the
responsibility for approving the individual bonus programs to be in effect for
the CEO and the other executive officers.  The Committee is comprised of non-
employee directors and acts periodically to evaluate the effectiveness of the
compensation program in tying Company performance to executive pay.
Additionally, the Committee or the Board of Directors is routinely consulted to
approve the compensation package of a newly hired executive or of an executive
whose scope of responsibility has changed significantly.

     For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, the process utilized by the
Committee in determining executive officer compensation levels was based on the
subjective judgment of the Committee.  Among the factors considered by the
Committee were the recommendations of the CEO with respect to the compensation
of the Company's key executive officers.  However, the Committee made the final
compensation decisions concerning such officers.

                                       11


     General Compensation Policy.  The objective of the Company's executive
compensation program is to align executive compensation with the Company's
long-term and short-term business objectives and performance.  Additionally,
executive compensation is designed to enable the Company to attract, retain and
motivate qualified executives who are able to contribute to the long-term
success of the Company.  The specific strategies relied upon to guide the
Company's executive compensation decisions include tying some portion of the
executive's pay to performance and comparing levels of compensation to those of
other companies operating within similar industries so as to ensure the
competitiveness of the Company's programs.

                               Submitted by the Compensation Committee of the
                               Board of Directors:

                               Edmund F. Murphy, Jr., Chair
                               Gerry Chastelet

                     COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS
                          AND INSIDER INFORMATION

     No member of the Company's Compensation Committee was at any time during
the Company's fiscal year 2003 an officer or employee of the Company, and no
executive officer of the Company served (or serves) as a member of the board of
directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more
executive officers serving as a member of the Company's Board of Directors or
Compensation Committee.


               CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its
directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law,
including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary
under such law.


                            AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

     As set forth in more detail in the Audit Committee Charter as adopted by
the Board of Directors (a copy of which was attached as Exhibit A to the
Company's proxy statement for its 2001 annual meeting of shareholders), the
Audit Committee (the "Committee") assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling
its responsibility for oversight of the quality and integrity of the
accounting, auditing and financial reporting practices of the Company, and also
recommends to the Board of Directors, subject to shareholder ratification, the
selection of the Company's independent accountants.

     Management is responsible for the Company's internal controls.  The
Company's independent auditors are responsible for performing an independent
audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting standards and to issue a report thereon.  The
Committee has general oversight responsibility with respect to the Company's
financial reporting, and reviews the results and scope of the audit and other
services provided by the Company's independent accountants.

     In fulfilling these responsibilities, the Committee met with both the
Company's management and its independent accountants to review all financial
statements and to discuss significant accounting policies and issues prior to
the issuance of those statements.  Management represented to the Committee that
the Company's consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and the discussions held with
the Company's independent accountants covered those matters required to be
discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Codification of Statements
on Auditing Standards).  During those discussions, the accountants provided to
the Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence
Standards Board Standard No 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees),
and the Committee discussed with the accountants their independence and whether
the non-audit services provided by them to the Company during fiscal year 2003
was compatible with the accountants' independence.

                                       12


     The members of the Committee are not professionally engaged in the
practice of auditing or accounting and are not experts in the fields of
accounting or auditing, including in respect of auditor independence.  Members
of the Committee rely without independent verification on the information
provided to them and on the representations made by management and the
independent accountants.  Accordingly, the Committee's oversight does not
provide an independent basis to determine that management has maintained
appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or internal control
and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and
applicable laws and regulations.  Moreover, the Committee's above-referenced
considerations and discussions do not ensure that the audit of the Company's
financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles or that the Company's auditors are in fact "independent."

     On the basis of its reviews and discussions and the report of the
independent auditors to the Committee, the Committee recommended to the Board
of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the audited financial statements
be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2003, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
that KPMG LLP be selected as the Company's independent auditors for the
Company's 2004 fiscal year.

                                   Submitted by the Audit Committee of the
                                   Board of Directors:

                  SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2004 ANNUAL MEETING

     Shareholders who intend to have a proposal considered for inclusion in the
Company's proxy statement and form of proxy for presentation at the Company's
