         Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                    (June 26, 1994 - unaudited)


1.   Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the 
     Company and its subsidiaries.  Intercompany accounts and 
     transactions have been eliminated.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed 
     consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments 
     (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to 
     present fairly the financial position as of June 26, 1994, and the 
     results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended 
     June 26, 1994 and June 27, 1993.  These statements should be read 
     in conjunction with the March 31, 1994 consolidated financial 
     statements and notes thereto.  The results of operations for the 
     three months ended June 26, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of 
     the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 
     1995.


2.   Temporary Cash Investments

     Effective April 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial 
     Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), "Accounting for Certain 
     Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," which was issued in May 
     1993.  Adoption of SFAS 115 resulted in adjusting investments to 
     fair value at April 1, 1994 and recording an unrealized gain of 
     $99,000 and an unrealized loss of $28,000 as a separate component 
     of stockholders' equity at April 1, 1994 and June 26, 1994, 
     respectively.

     The fair value and the amortized cost of available-for-sale 
     securities at April 1, 1994 are presented in the table which 
     follows.  Fair values are based on quoted market prices obtained 
     from an independent broker.  For each category of investment 
     securities, the table presents gross unrealized holding gains and 
     losses.

4.   Earnings Per Share

     Net income (loss) per share has been computed based upon the 
     weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares 
     outstanding.  For primary earnings per share, common equivalent 
     shares consist of the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed 
     exercise of dilutive stock options.  For fully diluted earnings per 
     share, common equivalent shares also include, if dilutive, the 
     effect of incremental shares issuable upon the conversion of the 
     7-1/4% convertible subordinated debentures, and net income will be 
     adjusted for the interest expense (net of income taxes) related to 
     the debentures.

REVENUE

Total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 1995 increased 12.7% to $61.5 
million from $54.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 1994.  Product 
revenue and service and other revenue increased $3.1 million and $3.9 million, 
respectively, quarter-over-quarter.  The 8.2% increase in product revenue is 
primarily attributable to an increase in international and U.S. government 
sales, which increased 41.8% and 20.0%, respectively.  Overall, international 
and U.S. government sales represented 22.9% and 34.9% of the Company's total 
revenue, respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal 1995.  Based upon 
current levels of proposal activity, management expects product revenue to 
increase over the remainder of the fiscal year.

The 22.7% increase in service and other revenue is attributable to systems 
integration activities in support of product sales to the U.S. government and 
to continued increases in the installed base of the Company's products.

GROSS MARGIN

Total gross margin as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 48.9% in the 
first quarter of fiscal 1995 from 50.4% in the comparable period of fiscal 
1994.  This decline was the result of a decrease in product gross margin to 
58.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 from 59.9% in the first quarter of 
fiscal 1994.  The quarter-over-quarter decline resulted primarily from a 
slightly unfavorable IDNX product mix and an increase in sales discounts 
related to new client pricing programs.  This decrease was partially offset by 
quarter-over-quarter favorable manufacturing variances from higher production 
volumes.

Service and other gross margin increased to 31.3% in the first quarter of 
fiscal 1995 from 29.7% in the comparable period of fiscal 1994.  This increase 
is primarily attributable to improved margins on a slightly higher mix of 
systems integration activities provided under a U.S. government contract.  
This component of service and other gross margin, which increased to 11.3% for 
the first quarter of fiscal 1995 from 6.4% for the comparable period of fiscal 
1994, can vary based upon the nature, timing, and extent of OEM products and 
services provided.


OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 remained relatively 
flat from the first quarter of fiscal 1994, but decreased as a percentage of 
total revenue to 44.7% from 50.2%, respectively, as a result of higher revenue 
levels.  Management expects the relationship of operating expenses as a 
percentage of total revenue to be relatively comparable with its current 
levels during the remainder of fiscal 1995.

Sales and marketing expense in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 increased $.9 
million, or 5.5%, from the first quarter of fiscal 1994, but decreased as a 
percentage of total revenue to 27.5% from 29.4%, respectively.  The dollar 
increase is primarily the result of the addition of personnel to support 
expansion of the sales infrastructure and increased sales commissions due to 
higher sales volume.

Research and development expense increased $.2 million, or 2.1%, in the first 
quarter of fiscal 1995 but decreased as a percentage of total revenue to 13.2% 
from 14.5% in the comparable period of fiscal 1994.  The dollar increase is 
comprised of an increase in direct R & D project funding, including salary-
related expenses, offset slightly by a reduction in other costs as a result of 
streamlining the Company's operations.  During the first quarter of fiscal 
1995, $.7 million of software costs were capitalized as compared to $.6 
million in the comparable period of fiscal 1994.  Management plans to continue 
funding research and development efforts at levels necessary to advance 
product programs.  At the same time, it is management's intention to increase 
the focus of these development efforts and therefore keep research and 
development expense at levels relatively comparable with fiscal 1994.

General and administrative expense decreased both in dollars, from $3.4 
million to $2.5 million, and as a percentage of total revenue, from 6.3% to 
4.1%, in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 as compared to the first quarter of 
fiscal 1994, respectively.  The dollar decrease is primarily a result of lower 
personnel costs related to streamlining the Company's operations.


INCOME TAXES

No tax expense was recorded by the Company for the net income of $1.4 million 
in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 due to the utilization of net operating 
loss carryforwards.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND RISK FACTORS

Historically, the majority of the Company's revenues in each quarter results 
from orders received and shipped in that quarter, and a significant proportion 
of such revenues result from orders received and shipped in the last month of 
the quarter.  Because of these ordering patterns and potential delivery 
schedule changes, the Company does not believe that backlog is indicative of 
future revenue levels.  Furthermore, if near term demand for the Company's 
products weakens in a particular quarter, the Company's operating results for 
that quarter would be adversely affected.  Expense levels are relatively fixed 
and are set based on expectations regarding future revenue levels.  These 
expectations involve making judgments on issues such as future competitive 
conditions and customer requirements, a process that involves evaluation of 
information that often is unclear and in conflict.  

The Company's products include components, assemblies and subassemblies that 
are currently available from single sources.  Testing and manufacturing is 
performed at the Company's Redwood City, California facility.  Availability 
limitations, price increases or business interruptions could adversely impact 
revenue, margins and earnings.

Because of the factors described above, as well as others that may affect the 
Company's operating results, past financial results may not be an accurate 
indicator of future performance.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 26, 1994, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and temporary cash 
investments of $38.6 million, as compared to $41.6 million as of March 31, 
1994.  Cash used for operations was $2.5 million during the first quarter of 
fiscal 1995, consistent with the comparable period of the prior year.  This 
usage was principally due to payment of fiscal 1994 incentive compensation, 
payment of interest on the convertible subordinated debentures, and a 
reduction in restructuring and reorganization reserve liabilities, offset 
somewhat by net income, depreciation and decreases in inventory and accounts 
receivable.

Net cash provided by investing activities of $2.2 million in the first quarter 
of fiscal 1995 consisted of $3.5 million in net proceeds from sale of 
temporary cash investments, partially offset by additions to software 
production costs and purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $.8 million in the first quarter 
of fiscal 1995 is composed primarily of the sale of Common Stock.

As of June 26, 1994 the Company had available an unsecured $10.0 million line 
of credit.  Borrowings under this committed facility are available through May 
1995 and bear interest at the bank's base rate (which approximates prime) and 
base rate plus 0.5% on usage above $5.0 million.  At June 26, 1994, there were 
no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

The Company believes that current cash balances and cash flows from 
operations, together with available sources of financing, will be sufficient 
to fund operations, purchases of capital equipment and research and 
development programs currently planned at least through the next twelve 
months.
