           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1)  GENERAL INFORMATION

     The consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have
     been prepared by the Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules
     and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain
     information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations,
     although the Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to
     make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that
     these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in
     conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
     thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
     the year ended April 30, 1996, as filed with the Securities and
     Exchange Commission on July 26, 1996.  There have been no significant
     changes in such information since the date of such Form 10-K.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
     condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of
     only a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly
     (a) the financial position of the Registrant as of October 31, 1996,
     and April 30, 1996, and (b) the results of its operations for the six-
     months ended October 31, 1996 and 1995, and (c) cash flows for the
     six-months ended October 31, 1996 and 1995.

(2)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     During fiscal 1996, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against
     a portion of its $1.2 million net operating loss carryforward due to
     the uncertainty of its ultimate realization.  The Company also has not
     recorded a future tax benefit for the effect of the loss it incurred
     during the six months ended October 31, 1996.  These net operating
     loss carryforwards are available to offset future taxable income
     through the year 2012.

     ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
               AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net revenues of $5,691,262 for the three months ended October 31, 1996,
have increased by 2% in comparison to the $5,595,034 of net revenues that
were reported for the comparable period in the prior year.  Year to date
net revenues of $10,968,511 are 3% lower than the $11,314,666 of net
revenues that were reported for the comparable six month period in the
prior year.  These amounts include revenues from computer hardware and
software shipments, sales of computer forms and supplies, and various
related services such as mass real estate appraisal, software support,
training, hardware maintenance, digitizing property tax maps, and forms
processing and printing.

While software license fees and related service revenues have increased
slightly over the prior year, the year to date decrease in revenues can
primarily be attributed to two factors: delays in the completion of the
Company's new Windows-based appraisal, financial and payroll products and
the cyclical nature of the Company's market for appraisal services in
Indiana and Ohio.  Significant progress has recently been made in both of
these areas as the new appraisal, financial and payroll software is now
being used by a number of customers.  In addition, the Company has signed
long-term contracts for approximately $1.5 and $1.8 million of appraisal
services in New York during the first quarter and in Ohio subsequent to
October 31, 1996, respectively.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended October 31, 1996, decreased 5%
to $3,524,097 versus the comparable prior year amount of $3,711,858. Year
to date cost of revenues decreased by 11% from $7,504,899 in the prior year
to $6,705,876 for the six months ended October 31, 1996.  These decreases
are primarily due to an improvement in the Company's gross profit margins
which can be attributed to a favorable change in the mix of revenues.  The
prior year gross margins were approximately 34% for both the three and six
month periods while the current year margins have improved to 38% and 39%,
respectively.  Sales of software generally yield a much higher margin than
sales of the Company's other products and services.

Selling, general and administrative expenses have decreased by 12% to
$2,227,559 for the three months ended October 31, 1996, compared to
$2,542,180 for the prior year quarter.  Year to date selling, general and
administrative expenses have decreased 9% from $4,833,705 in the prior year
to $4,407,819 in the current year.  This decrease is primarily due to the
Company's efforts to reduce costs without effecting the level of customer
service that has historically been provided.




                                      -7-
<PAGE>
As a result of the factors noted above, the Company reported operating
losses of $60,394 for the three months and $145,184 for the six months
ended October 31, 1996.  This is a substantial improvement over the
comparable prior year operating losses of $2,257,008 for the three months
and $2,621,942 for the six months ended October 31, 1995, even after the
$1.6 million nonrecurring charge related to the retirement of Allen F.
Peat, who was the Company's former Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and
President, is excluded from the prior year amounts.

Interest expense which is included in other expense, has decreased from
$217,281 to $162,245 because the Company has reduced its average
outstanding indebtedness by approximately $1 million.

The Company's provision (credit) for federal income taxes generally
fluctuates with the level of pretax income (loss).  In addition, the
effective tax rate is generally impacted because of non-deductible goodwill
amortization related to the Company's acquisitions of ATEK and Specialized
Data Systems.  However, as previously discussed in Note 2, the Company has
elected not to record the tax effect of the losses for the three and six
month periods ended October 31, 1996.

As a result of the factors noted above, the Company reported net losses of
$126,942 or $.04 per share for the three months and $276,243 or $.10 per
share for the six months ended October 31, 1996, verses net losses of
$2,281,553 or $.76 per share and $2,603,245 or $.88 per share for the
comparable periods in the prior year.  Weighted average shares outstanding
has decreased from 2,966,658 to 2,864,700 primarily because the Company
purchased approximately 150,000 shares of its common stock in March of 1996
from Allen F. Peat in connection with his retirement.


FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Working capital of $3,305,108 at October 31, 1996, is up 9% compared to
April 30, 1996, amount of $3,043,460.  These levels reflect current ratios
of 1.48 and 1.42, respectively.

Shareholders' equity at October 31, 1996, decreased by 5% to $4,912,091
from the $5,144,370 that was reported at April 30, 1996, primarily because
of the $276,243 net loss for the six month period.  As a result, book value
per share has decreased to $1.71 as of October 31, 1996, from $1.80 at
April 30, 1996.

The nature of the Company's business is not property or equipment
intensive.  Net capital expenditures, which were $259,408 for the six
months ended October 31, 1996, are slightly higher than the prior
year amount of $200,325.  They relate primarily to the purchase of
additional or new computer hardware and software for the Company's


                                      -8-
<PAGE>
technical and support personnel.  Net capital expenditures for future
periods are not anticipated to be significantly different from those
incurred in the current period.

Since the Company's revenues are generated from contracts with local
governmental entities, it is not uncommon for certain of its accounts
receivable to remain outstanding for approximately three to four months.
As of October 31, 1996, the Company owed $3,140,000 on its $5 million
revolving credit agreement and $375,000 on its ESOP loan.  This is an
improvement over the prior year as the balances outstanding on these loan
agreements at October 31, 1995, were $4,116,000 and $475,000, respectively.
It is anticipated that the revolving line of credit, together with existing
cash balances, and cash generated from future operations will be sufficient
for the Company to meet its working capital requirements for at least the
next twelve months.

The Company cannot precisely determine the effect of inflation on its
business.  The Company continues, however, to experience relatively stable
costs for its inventory as the computer hardware market is very
competitive.  Inflationary price increases related to labor and overhead
will have a negative effect on the Company's cash flow and net income to
the extent that they cannot be offset through improved productivity and
price increases.
