     This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed for the purpose of updating
certain "Selected Financial Data", " Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and consolidated financial
statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 1997, 1998 and 1999 to
reflect the recent restatement of the Registrant's consolidated financial
statements to include Sys-Tech, Inc. ("Sys-Tech").  Sys-Tech was acquired on
June 1, 2000 in a transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and
therefore all periods have been restated to reflect the acquisition as if it
had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period reported.  The acquisition
of Sys-Tech was previously reported on the Registrant's Form 8-K filed June
14, 2000, as amended by Form 8-K/A filed July 12, 2000.
