REVENUE RECOGNITION:

The company  generally  recognizes  revenues for product upon shipment.  Service
revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual period.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND COMPUTER SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 86 ("SFAS-86") states that
the software development costs incurred after the establishment of technological
feasibility  and up to the general release of the software should be capitalized
and written off over a three year period.  These costs include  coding,  testing
and  product  quality  assurance.  The  Company  has  charged all these costs to
operations  as  incurred.  During  the first six  months  ended  June 30,  1995,
$202,062 was capitalized and included in the Balance Sheet under "Other Assets".
This figure was expensed by December 31, 1995.


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

         The following  discussion  and analysis  should be read in  conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         SECOND  QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH SECOND  QUARTER ENDED
JUNE 30, 1995

         Revenues decreased 15% to $1,636,991 for the "Second Quarter 1996" from
$1,925,836 for the "Second Quarter 1995".  The decrease in revenue was caused by
decreased sales of the Company's Datacomputers,  due primarily to a delay in the
penetration  of the  Bakery  market  awaiting  completion  of  installation  and
training at several Bakery  customers.  The Company  expects that for the fiscal
year ending  December 31, 1996 results in the Bakery market will show  excellent
results,  as well as  continued  accelerated  growth in the Beer  market.  Since
entering into an agreement with Anheuser-Busch in March 1993, which selected the
Company as one of two hand-held manufacturers endorsed to sell their products to
Anheuser-Busch distributors,  sales in the Beer market have been increasing each
year at a rate of approximately 30%.

         Costs and  operating  expenses  decreased  to  $1,836,736  in 1996 from
$1,864,591  in 1995,  a decrease of 1.5% for the  "Second  Quarter  1995".  As a
percentage of sales, costs and operating expenses increased to 112% in 1996 from
97% in 1995. The Company expects that costs and operating expenses will decrease
as a percentage of sales over the next several years,  primarily as a results of
increased sales without a proportional  increase in operating  costs,  since the
current  level of  operating  expenses is projected to support a higher level of
sales than achieved in 1995.

                                       3



         Research and development  expenses  decreased to $283,174 in the second
quarter  of 1996  from  $316,292  for the same  period in 1995.  (In the  second
quarter of 1995,  $98,448 of the $316,292 was capitalized  under SFAS-86 and was
included in the Balance Sheet under "Other  Assets").  As a percentage of sales,
research and development expenses increased to 17% in 1996 from 16% for the same
period in 1995. The Company expects to continue to fund research and development
efforts to enhance current products and to develop future products.

         Selling,  general and administrative  expenses decreased to $783,677 in
the  second  quarter of 1996 from  $853,014  in the  second  quarter of 1995,  a
decrease of 8%. As a percentage of sales,  selling,  general and  administrative
expenses  increased  to 48% in 1996 from 44% in 1995.  The increase is primarily
due to the creation of new positions in the Company's sales and marketing staff.
The Company  expects that selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  going
forward will  decrease as a  percentage  of sales due to  anticipated  increased
sales  without  proportional  increases in selling,  general and  administrative
expenses.

         The  Company's  operating  loss  for the  second  quarter  of 1996  was
$198,651  compared to an operating  income of $40,823 for the second  quarter of
1995.  This  reflects  the decrease in the  Company's  sales and the increase in
expenses discussed above.



         SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996  COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1995

         Revenues for the first six months of 1996  decreased  25% to $2,964,142
from  $3,953,043 for the same period in 1995. The current period  includes sales
to each of the following markets:  Bakery,  Beer, Dairy, Office Coffee,  Uniform
and Inventory Services.

         Costs and operating expenses for the first six months of 1996 decreased
to  $3,531,130  from  $3,665,753 in 1995, a decrease of 3.7%. As a percentage of
sales,  costs and operating expenses increased to 112% in 1996 from 97% in 1995.
The  Company  expects  that costs and  operating  expenses  will  decrease  as a
percentage  of sales  over the next  several  years,  primarily  as a result  of
increased sales without a proportional increase in operating costs.

         Research and  development  expenses  decreased to $562,731 in the first
six months of 1996 from $620,524 for the same period in 1995.  (In the first six
months of 1995,  $202,062 of the $620,524 was capitalized  under SFAS-86 and was
included in the Balance Sheet under "Other  Assets").  As a percentage of sales,
research and development expenses increased to 19% in 1996 from 16% for the same
period in 1995. The Company  expects to maintain  ongoing  Hardware and Software
programs necessary to enhance current products and to develop future products.

                                       4



         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $1,587,226 in
the first six months of 1996 from  $1,622,851  in 1995,  a decrease  of 2%. As a
percentage of sales, selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased to
54% in 1996 from 41% in 1995.  The increase is primarily  due to the creation of
new positions in the Company's sales and marketing  staff.  Travel expenses also
rose  significantly in sales and marketing as the sales staff increased  contact
with potential customers nationwide.  The Company expects that selling,  general
and administrative expenses going forward will decrease as a percentage of sales
due to anticipated  increased sales without  proportional  increases in selling,
general and administrative expenses.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

          During the first 6 months of 1996, the Company successfully  completed
two private  equity  placements,  under  Regulation  S,  through the issuance of
convertible  preferred  stock.  The first equity  placement  closed on April 26,
1996,  at which time the Company  issued 3,000  shares of "Series B  Convertible
Preferred  Stock" with net proceeds of $2,683,000.  The second equity  placement
was  completed  on June 28,  1996,  with the sale of 1,200  shares of  "Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock" with net proceeds of $1,018,000.

          The proceeds were used to fund the operating  loss of $579,327 for the
first six months of 1996 and payment of  liabilities.  Part of the  proceeds was
used to pay-off the $440,000  due under the line of credit.  As a result of this
payment,  the bank returned the certificates of deposits to Mr. Mackinnon,  (the
Company former President). In the first 6 months of 1995, the negative cash flow
of $96,569 from  operations  was due to an increase in accounts  receivable as a
result of increased sales and capitalization of software development.

         The  Company   manages  its  working  capital  and,  based  on  current
projections, believes that the above equity financing will enable the Company to
meet working  capital  requirements  for at least the next twelve to twenty-four
months.

PREFERRED CONVERTIBLE STOCK

         The  holders  of  shares of Series B  Convertible  Preferred  Stock are
entitled  to  receive,  in addition  to any  dividend,  interest  equal to eight
percent  (8%)  per  annum of the  stated  value  of such  Series  B  Convertible
Preferred Stock.  Such interest will accrue from the Original Issuance Date, and
shall be payable, in cash or Common Stock, on a quarterly basis, commencing with
the fiscal  quarter ended June 30, 1996.  Payment of interest due hereunder with
respect to those  shares of Series B  Convertible  Preferred  Stock that  remain
issued and outstanding at the end of each of the Company's  fiscal quarter shall
be made within 15 business days after the filing with the SEC of the  applicable
report.

         At the end of June 30,  1996,  the Company has accrued  interest in the
amount of $40,000, which was recorded as a reduction of retained earnings.
