NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The financial statements included in this Form 10-QSB/A have been prepared
by the Company, 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 condensed, or omitted,
pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in
the Company's Fiscal 1997 Form 10-KSB.
The financial statements presented herein, as of October 3, 1997 reflect in
the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented. The
results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
the results for the full year.
2. RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL DATA
-----------------------------
The Company has restated its financial statements for the fiscal quarter
ended October 3, 1997 (as presented herein) as a result of the ongoing
investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in matters focused
principally on the Company's revenue recognition policies and internal
accounting controls. Since March 1996, the Company has been the subject of an
investigation by the SEC pursuant to a Formal Order of Private Investigation
relating to the Company. Since that date, certain former and current officers of
the Company have testified in the investigation. On June 22, 1998, the Company
was advised by the Staff of the SEC of the Staff's intention to recommend an
enforcement action against the Company for alleged violations of the federal
securities laws and to recommend the filing of a complaint in federal court
seeking a permanent injunction against the Company for violations arising from
the Company's reporting of certain revenues in violation of generally accepted
accounting principles in periodic filings made during certain of the quarterly
and annual filings by the Company in the five year period ending April 3, 1998.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company is required, among other things, to
restate certain previously issued financial information. The Company has advised
the Staff of the Company's intention to negotiate a mutually acceptable
settlement of this matter.
In response to the forgoing, the Company has taken a number of steps
including (a) changing the application of its revenue recognition policy,
effective with the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended April 3, 1998, to
defer recognition of revenue to customers who are not the end users of the
Company's product until such time as the product has been sold through to the
end user; (b) improving its quarterly and fiscal year end cut-off procedures;
(c) accepting the resignation of the Company's previous president and chief
executive officer subsequent to April 3, 1998; and (d) accepting the resignation
of the Company's previous chief financial officer subsequent to April 3, 1998.
The Company believes that these steps will provide reasonable assurance that the
aforementioned accounting errors do not recur.
This restatement of financial data for the periods reported on herein
results from the improper recognition of revenue on certain sales, which had the
effects on the results of operations as follows:

Income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to
common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common
share equivalents outstanding during each period.
5. INCOME TAXES
------------
Income taxes are calculated using the liability method specified by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for
Income Taxes". Management provides a valuation allowance against its deferred
tax assets to the extent that management concludes that it is more likely than
not that the Company will not benefit from the utilization of such deferred tax
assets.
6. DEBT
----
On June 20, 1997, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with
Heller Financial to provide a term loan in the amount of $254,000 which is
collateralized by the Company's inventory and a line of credit of up to
$2,500,000, based on the available borrowing base, collateralized by the
Company's accounts receivable. The term loan bears interest at a rate of prime
plus 1.50% and is payable in monthly installments of $4,233.00 plus accrued
interest for the first thirty-five months with a final monthly payment in the
amount of the entire then outstanding principal plus accrued interest. The line
of credit bears interest at a rate of prime plus 1.25%. At October 3, 1997, the
balance outstanding on the term loan was approximately $192,000 and the balance
under the terms of the line of credit was approximately $733,000. The available
borrowings under the line of credit at October 3, 1997 were $529,000. The
Company also paid in full, on June 20, 1997, its outstanding balance to
NationsBank in the amount of $447,000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR THE
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 1997.
SEE NOTE 2 IN ITEM 1 - RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL DATA
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
For the Three Months Ended October 3, 1997
- ------------------------------------------
The Company reported an operating loss for the quarter ended October 3,
1997 of $430,000 compared to operating income of $251,000 for the comparable
quarter of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in income is due primarily to
product mix shortages resulting from delivery delays by one of the Company's
major outsourcing vendors. These delays were the result of the vendor's
inability to procure certain long lead time components in a timely enough manner
to provide the Company with sufficient products to meet its open orders.
In addition to the income from operations, the Company recorded $250,000 in
net non-operating income for the quarter ended October 3, 1997. This
non-operating income was the net of $313,000 in investment income resulting from
the Company's participation in an initial public offering, $48,000 in interest
expense and $15,000 in one-time late charges. This compares to $33,000 in net
non-operating expenses, predominately interest expense, during the same
three-month period of the prior fiscal year.
Product sales revenue from continuing operations for the quarter ended
October 3, 1997 totaled approximately $2,746,000 compared to $3,504,000 for the
comparable quarter of the prior fiscal year, a decrease of 22%. This decrease in
product sales revenue can be attributed to the Company's delay in receiving
products from its outsourcing vendors.
Cost of products sold for the quarter amounted to $1,805,000 or 66% of
product sales revenues versus $2,058,000 or 59% for the comparable quarter of
the prior year. The increase in cost of products sold can be attributed to the
increase in sales of remote access products with a lower gross margin.
Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $1,079,000 or 39%
of product sales revenue for the three months ended October 3, 1997 versus
$930,000 or 27% of product sales revenue for the comparable three months of the
prior fiscal year. The increase in expenses during the quarter ended October 3,
1997 versus the same period of the prior fiscal year can be attributed to an
increase in headcount in the areas of sales and customer service. The Company
experienced an increase in selling related costs associated with the Company's
efforts to sell the remote access products that were sold to a major customer
during last fiscal year and returned to the Company during this fiscal period.
The impact on the Company's earnings for this period was minimal as no revenue
was recognized on the shipment of these products during the last fiscal year.
The Company has implemented additional sales promotions in an effort to sell the
remaining products associated with this transaction.
Product development expenses amounted to $292,000 or 11% of product sales
revenue for the three months ended October 3, 1997 versus $265,000 or 9% of
product sales revenue for the comparable three month period of the prior fiscal
year.
For the Six Months Ended October 3, 1997
- ----------------------------------------
The Company reported an operating loss for the six months ended October 3,
1997 of $292,000 compared to operating income of $346,000 for the comparable six
months of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in income is due primarily to
product mix shortages resulting from delivery delays by one of the Company's
major outsourcing vendors. These delays were the result of the vendor's
inability to procure certain long lead time components in a timely enough manner
to provide the Company with sufficient products to meet its open orders. At
October 3, 1997, the Company had open orders in excess of $225,000.
9
<PAGE>
Product sales revenue for the six months ended October 3, 1997 totaled
approximately $6,240,000 compared to $6,529,000 for the comparable six months of
the prior fiscal year, a decrease of 4%. This decrease in product sales revenue
can be attributed to the Company's delay in receiving products from its
outsourcing vendors.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR THE
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- ---------------------------------
For the Six Months Ended October 3, 1997 (continued)
- ----------------------------------------------------
Cost of products sold for the six months amounted to $3,926,000 or 63% of
product sales revenues versus $3,910,000 or 60% for the comparable six months of
the prior year. The increase in cost of products sold can be attributed to the
increase in product sales revenue, along with the Company's sales of remote
access products with a higher cost.
Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $2,038,000 or 33%
of product sales revenue for the six months ended October 3, 1997 versus
$1,734,000 or 27% of product sales revenue for the comparable six months of the
prior fiscal year. The increase in expenses during the six months ended October
3, 1997 versus the same period of the prior fiscal year can be attributed to an
increase in headcount in the areas of sales and customer service. The Company
experienced an increase in selling related costs associated with the Company's
efforts to sell the remote access products that were sold to a major customer
during last fiscal year and returned to the Company during this fiscal period.
The impact on the Company's earnings for this period was minimal as no revenue
was recognized on the shipment of these products during the last fiscal year.
Product development expenses amounted to $568,000 or 9% of product sales
revenue for the six months ended October 3, 1997 versus $539,000 or 8% of
product sales revenue for the comparable six month period of the prior fiscal
year.
LIQUIDITY
- ---------
In response to the Company's working capital needs, on June 20,1997, the
Company entered into a funding arrangement with Heller Financial to provide a
term loan in the amount of $254,000 which is collateralized by the Company's
inventory and a line of credit of up to $2,500,000, based on the available
borrowing base, collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable. As of
October 3, 1997, $529,000 was available for borrowing under the line of credit.
The Company believes that the working capital provided by Heller Financial,
together with anticipated funds expected to be generated by operating
activities, should be reasonably sufficient to cover operating expenses to be
incurred during fiscal 1998. Cash commitments for non-cancelable long-term
operating real and personal property leases during fiscal 1998 is approximately
$262,000. The Company has no plans for any major capital improvements.
Relationships with major vendors are satisfactory although the Company is on a
"Cash On Delivery" status with a significant number of raw materials vendors.
Cash used in continuing operations amounted to $1,391,000 for the six
months ended October 3, 1997 compared to cash used in continuing operations of
$314,000 for the comparable six months ended October 4, 1996. The increase in
cash used in continuing operations as compared to the prior year fiscal period
primarily reflects the decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities
resulting from the working capital which was made available by the line of
credit and private placement proceeds.
Cash used in investing activities amounted to $208,000 for the three months
ended October 3, 1997 compared with $109,000 used in financing activities for
the comparable three months of the prior fiscal year. This increase from the
same period of the prior fiscal year can be attributable to the purchases fixed
assets to be used in the Company's new facility along with an increase in
capitalized software development costs.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR THE
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 1997.
LIQUIDITY (CONTINUED)
- ---------------------
Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended October
3, 1997 was $1,840,000 versus $301,000 of cash provided by financing activities
for the six months ended October 4, 1996. This change can be attributed to the
Company's aforementioned new financing arrangement with Heller Financial along
with the proceeds from the private placement.
Working capital amounted to $3,831,000 at October 3, 1997, an increase of
$1,428,000, since April 4, 1997. The ratio of current assets to current
liabilities at October 3, 1997 was 2.07 to 1.00 compared to 1.57 to 1.00 at
April 4, 1997.
OUTLOOK FOR REMAINDER OF FISCAL YEAR 1998
- -----------------------------------------
SALES BY PRODUCT LINE
- ---------------------
The Company continues to experience growth in its sales of remote access
products following its decision to strategically aligned its sales focus towards
this marketplace versus sales of input\output devices. The sales information for
the second quarter of fiscal 1998 ended October 3, 1997 is listed below.
Management is fairly optimistic that the level of sales of remote access
products as a percentage of net revenue will continue to increase over the
remainder of the current fiscal year and should approach the level of 60% of net
revenues by the end of the fiscal year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
During the three months ended October 3, 1997, the Company initiated a
private placement of 500,000 shares of Common Stock. As of October 3, 1997, the
Company raised $934,400 and an additional $724,800 through October 16, 1997. The
proceeds from this private placement are to be used to fund new product
development and provide additional working capital. The proceeds from the
private placement along with the working capital provided by Heller Financial,
and the funds expected to be generated by operating activities, should be
reasonably sufficient to cover operating expenses to be incurred during fiscal
1998. Cash commitments for non-cancelable long-term operating real and personal
property leases during fiscal 1998 is approximately $262,000. The Company has no
plans for any major capital improvements. Relationships with major vendors are
satisfactory although the Company is on a "Cash On Delivery" status with a
significant number of raw materials vendors. Management believes that the
additional funding provided by both Heller and the private placement should
allow the Company to re-establish credit relationships with most of its smaller
vendors.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR THE
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
The Company expects continued growth in the sales of its remote access
products. At October 3, 1997, the Company had open orders of approximately
$227,000. Management believes that the additional funding raised through the
private placement along with the funding available from the Heller Financial
relationship should provide the Company with the working capital required to
grow the Company through new product development and marketing activities.
On October 11, 1997, the Company completed the relocation to its new
headquarters in Alpharetta, Georgia. The new facility is located in a new office
park in the suburbs of Atlanta. The Company has a ten-year lease on 22,000
square feet of a new 40,000 square foot one-story brick building and expects to
save approximately $170,000 per year in total occupancy costs.
