MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998 decreased
31.5% to $264,915 as compared to $386,628 for the corresponding period of 1997.
Revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 decreased 27.0% to
$85,915 as compared to $117,729 for the corresponding period of 1997. The
decreases in revenue for both the three and nine month periods were the direct
result of a decrease in volume of projects received from the Registrant's
largest client.
Cost of sales decreased slightly in both the three and six month
periods ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the similar periods of 1997. The
1997 period ended September 30th, included a rent abatement associated with the
relocation of the Registrant's offices which reduced both cost of sales and
administrative expenses.
Selling and Administrative expenses during the nine month period and
the three month period ending September 30, 1998 increased by approximately
$9,500. The increase was mainly due to escalation in rent charges, an increase
in telephone expense, and a slight increase in advertising costs.
Interest income was lower for both the three and nine month period
ending September 30, 1998 when compared to the similar period of 1997. The
majority of the interest income currently being recognized is from Data Probe,

<PAGE>
Inc. and it's note payable to the Registrant. (See NOTE F of "Notes to Form
10-Q" contained in this report for additional information)
The Registrant had a loss of $(146,336) during the nine month period
ending September 30, 1998 as compared to a loss of $(10,619) in the similar
period of 1997. The Registrant also reported a loss of $(65,251) for the three
month period ending September 30, 1998 as compared to a loss of $(21,860) for
the same period of 1997. The losses in the current fiscal year are the direct
result of the Registrant's inability to generate sufficient revenue to cover
it's current structure of costs.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES.
The Registrant did not incur any capital expenditures in the first nine
months of 1998 and does not anticipate adding any material capital assets for
the balance of fiscal year 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
Working capital decreased by $146,023 in the first nine months of 1998
from a surplus of $143,888 at December 31, 1997 to a deficit of $(2,135) at
September 30, 1998.
There is no assurance that the stream of sales and revenue from the
Registrant's major client will continue. If additional revenues cannot be
sustained and the Registrant once again realizes losses, the Registrant's
ability to continue to operate would be severely affected in the absence of
securing some type of supplemental financing, the availability of which there
can be no assurance.
