ITEM 2.    ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

     On May 15, 2000, ePresence, Inc. ("ePresence") announced the acquisition of
all of the outstanding common stock of Strategic Network Designs, Inc. ("SND"),
an IT consulting company based in New Jersey.  The acquisition was effected
pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 11, 2000 and closed as
of May 12, 2000, by and among ePresence, SND and the stockholders of SND, a copy
of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (the
"Agreement").  The press release dated May 15, 2000 is attached as Exhibit 99.1

     Prior to the acquisition, SND offered customer relationship management, e-

intends to continue to have SND offer such services.

     ePresence utilized liquid cash assets to pay the cash portion of the
