  Item 2.         Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

                  On June 30, 2000,  the Registrant  issued a press  release,  a
  copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K,  indicating that the
  Registrant  completed the previously  reported sale of its European operations
  and certain  U.S.  assets to  Datapoint  NewCo 1 Limited for $49.5  million in
  cash, less certain adjustments,  including an adjustment in the event that the
  aggregate  shareholder  deficit  of  the  European  operations  exceeds  $10.0
  million.  The sale,  which  represents  substantially  all of the  assets  and
  revenue  of the  Registrant,  was  approved  by the  Bankruptcy  Court for the
  District of Delaware.

     Item 7. Financial Statements,  Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits

     (b) Pro  Forma  Financial  Information.  Set  forth  below is the pro forma
financial information required with respect to the transactions  described above
in Item 2: The following  unaudited  pro forma  financial  statements  have been
prepared to give effect to the sale of the Company's  European  operations  (the
"Sale"), for $49.5 million in cash, less certain  adjustments,  which represents
substantially all of the Company's historical operations.

A)   The  unaudited  pro  forma  financial   statements  of  Dynacore   Holdings
     Corporation  ("Dynacore")  (formerly Datapoint  Corporation) give effect to
     the  consummation  of  the  Sale  transaction,  as if  the  Sale  had  been
     consummated:  (i) on April 29, 2000, in the case of the Unaudited Pro Forma
     Balance  Sheet,  (ii) on August 2, 1998,  in the case of the  Unaudited Pro
     Forma  Statements  of  Operations  for the fiscal year ended July 31, 1999,
     (iii)  and on  August  1,  1999,  in the case of the  Unaudited  Pro  Forma
     Statements of Operations for the nine month period ended April 29, 2000.

B)   On June 27, 2000,  Dynacore  announced  that an agreement in principle  had
     been reached with the Official Unsecured  Creditors' Committee appointed in
     the  corporation's  Chapter 11 case pending in the United States Bankruptcy
     Court for the District of Delaware. (Case No. 00-1853(PJW)).

     The agreement,  which is subject to among other things, filing of a Plan of
Reorganization,  vote of creditors and equity  security  holders and approval by
the Bankruptcy  Court,  provides for the  distribution  of  approximately  $34.8
million in cash to  Debenture  holders and other  unsecured  creditors  from the
proceeds  of  the  Sale.  Such  cash  distribution  is  expected  to  result  in
debentureholders' receiving a distribution equal to 60% of the face value of the
outstanding  8  7/8%   Convertible   Subordinated   Debentures   due  2006  (the
"Debentures"),  excluding accrued  interest.  At the time of confirmation of the
Plan of  Reorganization,  Dynacore is expected to have remaining working capital
of  approximately  $4 million  after fees,  expenses  and certain  escrow  items
required in the Sale.

     The agreement  provides  that when the  reorganized  Dynacore  emerges from
Chapter 11: (i) Debenture holders and other unsecured creditors will receive 25%
of the equity of the reorganized  corporation,  3 out of 7 seats on the Board of
Directors,  and 40% of a Patent  Litigation  Trust,  to be formed to pursue  the
corporation's   patent   litigations,   (ii)  current   Exchangeable   Preferred
Shareholders  will receive 23.5% of the equity of the  reorganized  corporation,
and 3.5% of the Patent Litigation Trust, (iii) current Common  Shareholders will
receive  41.5% of the equity of the  reorganized  corporation;  and (iv) current
officer management will receive 10% of the equity of the reorganized corporation
as part of a settlement of certain  officer  administrative  claims that include
contract   cancellation  and  other  contractual   entitlements.   The  Plan  of
Reorganization of the corporation is expected to be filed during July 2000.

     Pursuant to the agreement,  with respect to its remaining 56.5% interest in
the Patent  Litigation  Trust,  Dynacore will distribute to its  post-bankruptcy
shareholders  75% of the first $100  million of net proceeds  received,  if any,
after  adjustment  for  corporate  tax  and  payment  of all  patent  litigation
expenses.

     The unaudited pro forma financial  statements  exclude any impact resulting
from the agreement described above.

C)   The unaudited pro forma financial statements are presented for illustrative
     purposes only and are not necessarily  indicative of what Dynacore's actual
     financial  position or results of  operations  would have been had the Sale
     been consummated on such dates, nor is it necessarily  indicative of future
     financial  position or results of operations.  Additionally,  the pro forma
     financial  statements do not give effect to (i) any transactions other than
     the Sale and those described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro
     forma financial statements,  (ii) any one-time charges that may result from
     the restructuring of Dynacore's existing business due to the Sale, or (iii)
     any cost savings or other synergies anticipated by Dynacore management as a
     result of the Sale.

D)   The  unaudited  pro  forma  financial  statements  do  not  purport  to  be
     indicative of Dynacore's  financial position or results of operations as of
     the date  hereof  or for any  period  ended on the date  hereof,  as of the
     closing date of the Sale,  or for any period ending at the closing date, or
     as of or for any other future date or period. Future results of the Company
     could differ  materially from the unaudited pro forma financial  statements
     because of various risks and uncertainties  including  without  limitation,
     changes in  competition,  economic  conditions,  new  product  development,
     changes in market conditions,  changes in tax and other governmental rules,
     the  outcome  of the  Engstrom  v.  Futureshare.com,  LLC  litigation,  and
     regulations applicable to the Company.

E)   The following  unaudited pro forma financial  statements are based upon the
     historical   financial  statements  of  Dynacore  and  should  be  read  in
     conjunction  with such  historical  financial  statements and notes thereto
     included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended July
     31, 1999 and Form 10Q for the quarterly period ended April 29, 2000.

                NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.       UNAUDITED PRO FORMA STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

The accompanying unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the year ended
July 31, 1999 and the nine months ended April 29, 2000, have been prepared as if
the Sale was consummated as of August 2, 1998, and August 1, 1999, respectively,
and  reflect  the  pro  forma   adjustments   described   below.  The  estimated
non-recurring  gain on the  Sale is  excluded  from  the pro  forma  results  of
operations.

(A)        to eliminate the historical results of operations associated with the
           Company's European operations  included in the Sale,  including costs
           associated with certain  corporate  employees and other personnel who
           were transferred to the purchaser in connection with the Sale.


2.   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEET

The  accompanying  unaudited  pro  forma  balance  sheet  assumes  the  Sale was
consummated on April 29, 2000 and reflects the following pro forma adjustments:

     (A) to record the sale of the historical  operating  assets and liabilities
of the European operations pursuant to the Sale.

     (B) to  record  net  cash  proceeds  to be  received  by the  Company  upon
consummation  of the Sale.  Net proceeds  include the purchase  price of $49,500
thousand less anticipated  transaction  costs and estimated taxes related to the
sale of $4,700  thousand  and escrow  deposits of $6,000  thousand.  Transaction
costs  include  legal,  accounting,   other  professional  fees,  and  estimated
management  bonuses to be paid in connection with the  consummation of the Sale.
The  escrow  deposits  will  be  held  by  a  designated  escrow  agent  pending
adjustment,  if any, related to the aggregate of the shareholder  deficit of the
European operations and resolution of certain pension fund matters.

     (C) to record the estimated net gain on the sale of the European operations
as follows: (in thousands)

           Net cash proceeds                                  $38,800
           Net liabilities of the European operations           9,673

           Net gain from Sale                                 $48,530
                                                              =======

           Accumulated other comprehensive income includes ($6,217) thousand for
           minimum  pension  liability  adjustments  recorded  by the Company in
           connection  with its  United  Kingdom  subsidiary's  defined  benefit
           pension  plan,   offset  by  $6,274  thousand  for  foreign  currency
           translation  adjustments  recorded  by the  Company  relating  to its
           European Subsidiaries.

                          DYNACORE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
                        (FORMERLY DATAPOINT CORPORATION)
                      COMPLETES SALE OF EUROPEAN OPERATIONS
                             AND CERTAIN U.S. ASSETS

         SAN ANTONIO,  Texas, June 30,  2000.....Dynacore  Holdings  Corporation
(formerly  Datapoint  Corporation  EBB:  DTPTQ)  announced  that the  previously
reported sale of its European  operations  and certain U.S.  assets to Datapoint
NewCo 1 Limited for $49.5 million in cash, less certain  adjustments,  including
an  adjustment  in the  event  that the  aggregate  shareholder  deficit  of the
European operations exceeds $10.0 million at closing, was completed today.

         Under the  agreement in principle  reached with the Official  Unsecured
Creditors'  Committee  appointed in Dynacore's Chapter 11 case pending in United
States  Bankruptcy  Court for the District of Delaware (Case No. 00-1853 (PJW)),
at the time of confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization,  Dynacore is expected
to have remaining working capital from the proceeds of the sale of approximately
$4 million after fees,  expenses and certain  escrow items required in the sale.
Dynacore will have no debt at that time.

         The sale of its European Operations is consistent with the direction of
the Corporation to focus its efforts and resources on acquiring,  developing and
marketing  software with Internet and  E-commerce  applications.  The previously
acquired Corebyte NetworksTM product family (www.corebyte.com),  highlights this
effort.  The Corebyte  subsidiary  has  developed an  intelligent  browser-based
communications  networking  system.  With a single interface,  users of Corebyte
NetworksTM products directly access every application  necessary to manage their
enterprise  from  basic  E-mail to  advanced  group  computing  tools.  Corebyte
NetworksTM  products users seamlessly share and exchange  valuable  information,
selectively  and  securely,   within  their   networked   community  and  across
enterprises  via the  Internet.  Companies  that  standardize  their  network on
Corebyte NetworksTM products gain all the benefits of the Internet and eliminate
the fear of obsolescence.

         This press release  contains  forward-looking  statements  that involve
         uncertainties,  including,  but not limited to, risks and uncertainties
         related to the competitive  environment and other risks.  Future trends
         and results may differ  materially from  disclosures  contained in this
         release.
