financial markets in the New England area. The Company is organized as an S

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:  Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and
short term investments in highly liquid instruments such as certificates of
deposit and time deposits which generally mature within three months.

     BASIS OF ACCOUNTING:  Assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, are
recognized on the accrual method of accounting.  Product service contract
revenue is recognized over the length of the service contract, commencing in the
month of installation.  The remaining revenue is recorded as deferred revenue
until the revenue is recognized.

     INVENTORY:  Inventory consists of materials and parts used in the above
mentioned activities and is valued at the lower of cost (determined by the
first-in, first-out method) or market.

     DEPRECIATION:  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful life of the asset.  The costs of maintenance and repairs is
charged to expenses as incurred, whereas significant improvements are
capitalized.

     ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE:  Accounts receivable are recorded at their net
realizable value. No allowance for bad debts has been provided as all accounts
receivable are considered collectible.
