The report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is amended to read as follows:

                        Report of Independent Accountants
                        ---------------------------------

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Labtec Inc.


In our opinion,  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheet and the related
consolidated  statements of  operations  and  comprehensive  income  (loss),  of
changes in shareholders'  equity (deficit) and of cash flows present fairly,  in
all  material   respects,   the  financial  position  of  Labtec  Inc.  and  its
subsidiaries (the Company) at March 31, 1999 and the results of their operations
and their  cash flows for each of the two years in the  period  ended  March 31,
1999, in conformity with accounting  principles generally accepted in the United
States.  These  financial  statements  are the  responsibility  of the Company's
management;  our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements  based on our audits.  We conducted our audits of these statements in
accordance  with auditing  standards  generally  accepted in the United  States,
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable  assurance
about whether the financial  statements  are free of material  misstatement.  An
audit includes examining,  on a test basis,  evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial  statements,  assessing the  accounting  principles
used and  significant  estimates made by management,  and evaluating the overall
financial  statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

We have not audited the consolidated financial statements of Labtec Inc. and its
subsidiaries for any period subsequent to March 31, 1999.
