C. Liquidity

The Company has not met the tangible net worth covenant in its revolving credit
agreement since December 1998. On October 1, 1999 the lender under this
agreement notified the Company of its intent to terminate the agreement and to
require repayment of the borrowings thereunder plus an early termination fee of
$30,000 effective December 31, 1999. In a letter dated January 21, 2000, the
lender agreed to advance funds to the Company through February 29, 2000. The
lender will continue to receive all payments made on Company receivables until
all amounts due the lender are paid. The Company expects payments will be
completed by March 31, 2000. At January 21, 2000, borrowing under this agreement
totaled $481,143. Substantially all of the Company's assets, other than its real


<PAGE>

property, are pledged to secure the borrowings under this agreement. When
payment is completed all pledged assets will be released.

The Company's president and major stockholder has agreed to provide up to
$1,000,000 in secured financing to the Company in the form of cash loans or
guarantees on Company borrowings. The terms of the lending agreement will be
consistent with the Company's existing agreement. The proposed interest rate of
3% over the published prime rate of Norwest Bank is lower than the current rate
and lower than competitive rates from an outside lending institution. Loan
origination fees, due diligence costs other than legal fees, and loan
termination fees will be waived.

This agreement expires on September 30, 2000, or upon sale of the Company and
provides for the issuance of warrants to purchase one share of common stock, at
market value at the date of the advance, for each four dollars loaned to the
Company.


                   ITEM2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue decreased by $158,000 or 8% for the three months ended December 31,
1999, and increased $669,000, or 18% for the six months ending December 31,
1999, compared to like periods in the prior year. The six month increase in 1999
over 1998 was attributable to demand for the new intelligent monitor products.

The gross margin percentage for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was 23%,
compared to 31% for the same quarter ended in fiscal 1998. The gross margin
percentage for the six months ended December 31, 1999 was 27%, compared to 31%
for the six months ended December 31, 1998. One time costs associated with the
consolidation of manufacturing at the Eau Claire facility contributed to the
decrease in gross margin percentage. These costs included training costs related
to products formerly manufactured in New Brighton, and cost of moving equipment
and inventory.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $53,000 or 6% for the
quarter and $268,000 or 14% for the six months ended December 31, 1999, when
compared to the prior year. The decrease was due to reductions in personnel and
the completion of a major product development effort in fiscal 1999. . Interest
expense increased $18,000, or 88% during the quarter and $32,000, or 94% for the
six months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same period of the prior
year. Increased average borrowings and a higher average interest rate caused the
increase in interest expense.

Starting in October 1999 a cost reduction program was implemented which reduced
payroll and related costs by 10% at December 31, 1999 and an additional 10%
reduction at January 31, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has not met the tangible net worth covenant in its revolving credit
agreement since December 1998. On October 1, 1999 the lender under this
agreement notified the Company of its intent to terminate the agreement and to
require repayment of the borrowings thereunder plus an early termination fee of
$30,000 effective December 31, 1999. In a letter dated January 21, 2000, the
lender


<PAGE>

agreed to advance funds to the Company through February 29, 2000. The lender
will continue to receive all payments made on Company receivables until all
amounts due the lender are paid. The Company expects payments will be completed
by March 31, 2000. At January 21, 2000, borrowing under this agreement totaled
$481,143. Substantially all of the Company's assets, other than its real
property, are pledged to secure the borrowings under this agreement. When
payment is completed all pledged assets will be released.


The Company's president and major stockholder has agreed to provide up to
$1,000,000 in secured financing to the Company in the form of cash loans or
guarantees on Company borrowings. The terms of the lending agreement will be
consistent with the Company's existing agreement. The proposed interest rate of
3% over the published prime rate of Norwest Bank is lower than the current rate
and lower than competitive rates from an outside lending institution. Loan
origination fees, due diligence costs other than legal fees, and loan
termination fees will be waived.

This agreement expires on September 30, 2000, or upon sale of the Company and
provides for the issuance of warrants to purchase one share of common stock, at
market value at the date of the advance, for each four dollars loaned to the
Company.


During the six months ended December 31, 1999, operations consumed $194,000 of
cash. Purchases of property, plant and equipment consumed $50,000 of cash.
Payment of capital lease obligations consumed $77,000 of cash. Increased
borrowings on the working capital loan provided $4,000 of cash to the Company.
The overall result was an decrease in cash of $317,000.


COMMON STOCK LISTING

The Company's Common Stock previously was quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market
under the symbol "DOTX". Effective August 4, 1999 the Company's Common Stock
transferred to the OTC Bulletin Board.


IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000 ON THE COMPANY'S INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS.

The Company's products are not impacted by the year 2000 issue since the
displays/monitors that the Company designs and manufacturers do not contain date
logic as part of their operation.

To comply with the year 2000 issue, the Company purchased year 2000 ready
hardware and software (per vendor readiness documents) in September 1998. Total
estimated cost of the purchase was $433,000 of which $398,000 has been
capitalized.
No additional costs are expected to be incurred after December 31, 1999.

Installation and training have been ongoing since January 15, 1999. Several
pilot runs were completed through August 31, 1999. Final data transfer and
implementation of processes was completed on October 4, 1999, whereupon the
system became operational. The hardware vendor has assured the Company that the
installed hardware is Year 2000 ready. The software vendor has assured the
Company that its software release running as of October 4, 1999 is Year 2000
ready. The hardware


<PAGE>

vendor and the software vendor are both well established companies with a long
history of successful client installations. The Company believes that the
hardware and software vendors will support their products under all
contingencies.

In August 1999 the Company began a written evaluation of its suppliers. Letters
requesting information of Year 2000 readiness were sent or faxed to all key
suppliers. A substantial majority of suppliers responded that they were Year
2000 ready and products and services would not be delayed due to Year 2000
problems. No suppliers responded that they were not Year 2000 ready. The Company
has continued to contact the non-responding suppliers to determine their Year
2000 readiness. For a majority of the Company's critical materials, alternative
suppliers are available if current suppliers experience Year 2000 difficulties.
The Company has a long history of re-engineering products on short notice
because of the unexpected unavailability of parts.


In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities". This Statement requires companies to record derivatives
on the balance sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or
losses resulting from changes in the value of those derivatives would be
accounted for depending on the use of the derivatives and whether it qualifies
for hedge accounting. Management has not yet completed an assessment of the
impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS 133 on the Company's financial
statements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000. The Company will adopt this accounting standard as required in fiscal
2001.
