Part III--Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion
thereof could not be filed within the prescribed period. (Attach Extra Sheets if

Response:
On March 16, 2000 the Registrant entered into an agreement to sell certain
assets of its IT Division and the ongoing operations of its Computer Products
Division, subject to obtaining stockholder approval and other required consents.
This transaction is expected to close on May 19, 2000. As a result of the timing
of this transaction the Registrant needs additional time to comply with the
provisions of APB Opinion 30 and cannot timely file its Form 10-Q without
unreasonable expense and effort. The Registrant anticipates that the operations
of this operating segment through the measurement date, March 16, 2000, will
be reported as discontinued operations in the Registrant's Form 10-Q, along
with the gain on disposal.
Part IV--Other Information
(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or section 30 of the Investment Company Act of

registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s). [X] Yes [ ] No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from
the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
[X] Yes [ ] No
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate
of the results cannot be made.
Response:
As discussed in Part III above, the Registrant has entered into an agreement to
sell certain assets and an operating segment subject to shareholder approval
and other conditions to closing and expects this transaction to close in the
second quarter. However, as a result of the presentation of this transaction
on the Registrant's financial statements prior to its consummation, in
accordance with APB Opinion 30, revenues for the fiscal quarter ended March 31,
2000 are anticipated to be $5,984,000 as compared to $4,318,000 in the same
quarter of the previous year. The operations of the disposed segment will
be reported as income from discontinued operations of $302,000. The gain on
the sale of that segment will be reported as gain on disposal of $5,091,000.
