Dear Sirs/Madams:

We have read and agree with the comments in Item 4 of Form 8-K of BrightStar
Information Technology Group, Inc. dated November 8, 1999, (which was filed on
November 16, 1999) except as follows:

o    As to the comment in the last sentence of the fourth paragraph related to
     the steps taken by the Company to address each such material weakness, we
     have no basis to either agree or disagree.

o    As to the first sentence of the fifth paragraph related to the information
     provided to the Board of Directors on September 24, 1999, we have no basis
     to either agree or disagree. Deloitte & Touche LLP was informed on
     September 23, 1999, by a Company officer that he believed a borrowing base
     calculation submitted to the Company's lender had been prepared with
     certain adjustments that were known not to be in accordance with the terms
     of the credit agreement.

o    As to the second and third sentences of the fifth paragraph, we have no
     basis to either agree or disagree.

o    As to the last sentence of the sixth paragraph, we have no basis to either
     agree or disagree.

Yours truly,

Deloitte & Touche LLP
