           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, 1997, as filed with the Securities and
     Exchange Commission on July 29, 1997.  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 July 31, 1997, and
     April 30, 1997, and (b) the results of its operations for the three-
     months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996, and (c) cash flows for the
     three-months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996.

(2)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     During 1997 and 1996, the Company recorded a valuation allowance
     against certain of its future tax benefits due to the uncertainty of
     their ultimate realization.  In addition, as of April 30, 1997, the
     Company had tax net operating loss carryforwards available of
     approximately $995,000.  As a result, the Company has not recorded a
     provision for income taxes for the three months ended July 31, 1997,
     because a portion of these loss carryforwards will be utilized.  These
     net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset future taxable
     income through the year 2011.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net revenues of $5,963,985 for the three months ended July 31, 1997, have
increased by 13% in comparison to the $5,277,249 of net revenues that were
reported for the comparable period in the prior fiscal 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, and
forms processing and printing.

The increase in net revenues primarily can be attributed to the cyclical
nature of the Company's appraisal business.  Recent contracts have
increased the Company's backlog for appraisal services to over $13 million,
which is the highest the backlog has been since Sabre Systems and Service
was acquired in November of 1994.  Revenues from hardware, software and
related services have remained relatively flat and will probably remain so
until development efforts focused on enhancing and reengineering current
legacy software products such as property tax, appraisal, financial and
MIRRS are further along.

As a result of the increase in net revenues, cost of revenues for the
three months ended July 31, 1997, also increased 13% to $3,594,425 versus
the comparable prior year amount of $3,181,779.  Margins for both periods
have remained comparable at 40%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses have increased by 6% to
$2,313,085 for the three months ended July 31, 1997, compared to $2,180,260
for the same period in the prior fiscal year.  This increase primarily is
due to annual salary adjustments and other costs associated with attracting
and retaining good employees.

As a result of the factors noted above, the Company reported operating
income of $56,475 for the three months ended July 31, 1997, versus an
operating loss of $84,790 for the three months ended July 31, 1996.  In
addition, interest expense, which is included in other expense, has
decreased from $80,995 to $42,258 because the Company has reduced its
average outstanding indebtedness by over $1.5 million.

The Company's provision for federal income taxes generally fluctuates
with the level of pretax income.  In addition, the effective tax rate is
generally impacted because of non-deductible goodwill amortization related
to the Company's acquisitions of ATEK Information Services and Specialized
Data Systems.  However, as described in Note 2, the Company has not
recorded a provision for federal income taxes for the three months ended



                                     -7-
<PAGE>
July 31, 1997, as a portion of its net operating loss carryforwards
available have been utilized to offset it.

As a result of the factors noted above, the Company reported net income of
$20,591 or $.01 per share for the three months ended July 31, 1997, versus
a net loss of $149,301 or $.05 per share for the comparable period in the
prior fiscal year.  Weighted average shares outstanding has decreased from
2,863,355 to 2,851,450 primarily because the Company announced its intention
to and began to buy back up to 100,000 shares of its common stock during the
first quarter of this current fiscal year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Working capital of $2,314,972 at July 31, 1997, has increased by 47%
compared to the April 30, 1997, amount of $1,574,860.  These levels
reflect current ratios of 1.31 and 1.19, respectively.  The increase in
working capital primarily is due to a reduction in current liabilities
as a result of payments made or services performed during the first
quarter of the current fiscal year.

Shareholders' equity at July 31, 1997, decreased by $97,150 to $4,728,517
from the balance reported at April 30, 1997, primarily because the Company
repurchased 92,000 shares of its common stock for approximately $194,000
during the first quarter.  This amount was offset by net income for the
quarter of $20,591, deferred compensation expense of $19,633 and purchases
by employee stock plans.  Book value per share has remained unchanged at
$1.68 as of July 31, 1997.

The nature of the Company's business is not property or equipment
intensive.  Net capital expenditures, which were approximately $91,000
for the three months ended July 31, 1997, are slightly lower than the
$124,000 of capital expenditures reported for the comparable period in
the prior fiscal year.  The net capital expenditures relate primarily to
the purchase of additional or new computer hardware and software for the
Company's technical and support personnel.  Net capital expenditures for
future periods currently are not anticipated to be significantly different
from those incurred in the current period.

As 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 July 31, 1997, the Company owed $1,512,000 on its $5 million
revolving credit agreement and $300,000 on its ESOP loan.  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
12 months.



                                     -8-
<PAGE>
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.
