                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Cole Computer
Corporation have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Registration Statement
filed with the SEC on Form SB-2.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the
interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The results of
operations for interim are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.  Notes to the financial statements which would
substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the 1999 audited financial
statements, as reported in the SB-2, have been omitted.

NOTE 2.  COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE

          During the 6 months ended June 30, 2000, 500,000 shares were sold
for $750,000 and 518,000 shares were issued as follows: 268,000 shares were
issued for services valued at $390,000 and 250,000 shares were issued in
exchange for a $250,000 note payable to a current stockholder and major
supplier.  Included in the shares issued for services is 135,000 shares valued
at $202,500 issued for the purchase of an interest in a contract to convert
print books into CD-ROM and internet-downloadable versions for the American
Heart Association.  In connection with this purchase, the Company is obligated
to fund up to $150,000 in related costs of conversion.  As of June 30, 2000,
the Company had advanced $15,938.  The Company expects revenue from this
project to begin late 2000, but due to the contingent nature of the project,
the entire $218,428 invested is recognized as an expense as of June 30, 2000.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

Plan of Operation.
------------------

         Cole's Objective is to maximize the stockholders' value by executing
a strategy that focuses on the priority of growth, profitability, customer
satisfaction and service.  The following discussion highlights the Company's
performance in context to these priorities, and it should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements (including related notes)
accompanying this report.

          Cole Computer Corporation suffered during the second quarter from
similar industry decrease in sales.  The sales decreases were in part due to
the industry reaction to Y2K.  Many of the Corporate and Government customers
spent a major portion of their IT budget to make sure they were Y2K compliant.
The industry should start making a recovery during the 3rd quarter.

          Cole management has implemented several cost saving measures to
reduce overhead.  The Company reduced middle management personnel by 32
percent and is looking at further reductions in the 3rd quarter.

          In addition, Cole reached an agreement with a major distributor to
open a distribution network in Oklahoma.  This will reduce our inventory
investment and significantly reduce our shipping cost.  Under this agreement,
10 personnel were taken off of Cole's payroll to the new distribution company,
again reducing the overall overhead in personnel cost.

          During this quarter, Cole has signed strategic alliances with
several high tech companies to diversify and expand.  In June, Cole Computer
Corporation established a joint venture to develop the electronic delivery
system for the American Heart Association's Emergency Cardiovascular Care
International Guidelines 2000.  The International Guidelines 2000 will be
published in the August 22 issue of "Circulation." Cole Computer Corporation
will work with CurrentsOnLine.com, Inc. to provide the Internet based delivery
and distribution system for the International Guidelines 2000. This worldwide
distribution will be targeted to over 200 countries who recognize these
Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) as well as Advanced and
Pediatric emergency cardiovascular care. These International Guidelines will
be offered over the Internet for the first time since their inception in 1974.

          In addition, Cole has added strength to its commitment to the
government market by signing an agreement with Engineering and Professional
Services, Inc. (EPS), a major provider of computers and services.  EPS is a
multi-disciplined, problem-solving organization with proven capabilities in
physical, engineering and systems science applications. The scope of projects
conducted by EPS in these fields has ranged from the analysis, design,
development and implementation of manual and semi-automated data processing
systems, to supplying ADP mini-and large-scale computer systems for major
military, scientific and industrial applications. The Company is maturing and
this, augmented by client confidence, allows us to begin integrating
additional technical capabilities in meeting military requirements.

          EPS has years of technical and management successes in supporting
military requirements. EPS has successfully managed systems engineering and
technical support programs and their experienced personnel and corporate
knowledge base has provided high yield, low risk, rapid response support at a
profitable level. EPS offers a singularly and totally committed capability to
meet program challenges and to assist in meeting engineering requirements of
customers.

          EPS has proven through existing contracts that it can successfully
support Government Engineering requirements. EPS is recognized as a responsive
performer in the U.S. Army Communications - Electronics Command (CECOM)
community. EPS has a complete range and depth of personnel in-house and ready-
to-serve.

          Our Company will continue to build on its strengths and will launch
a new retail outlet during the month of August in Arkansas and others later.

Results of Operations.
----------------------

          The revenues we produced for the 2nd quarter of 2000 dropped 3.5%
compared to the same period in 1999.  The drop in sales is due to decreases in
all sales categories.

          Selling expenses increased 76% in the 2nd quarter of 2000 compared
to 2nd quarter of 1999.   This reflects an increase in GSA salaries of $37,500
paid by stock per an employment contract and an increase in advertising
expense of $35,000 in 2000 when compared to same period in 1999.

          General and administrative expenses increased nearly 400% in the 2nd
quarter of 2000 when compared to same period in 1999.  Outside services paid
with Company stock of $202,500,  stock issued to employees of $150,000, along
with increases in officer salaries, legal services and depreciation made up
the principal reasons for this increase of general and administrative
expenses, when compared to same period in 1999.

          We experienced a loss of ($855,000) in the 2nd quarter of 2000
compared to a loss of ($130,000) in the 2nd quarter of 1999.    The primary
reasons for this loss were the  increases in selling, general and
administrative expenses and the drop in sales as mentioned above.

          The remaining 171,628 private placement shares were sold in April
2000 @ $1.50 per share providing an additional $257,442 cash for working
capital.  An additional 268,000 shares of Company stock were issued in
2ndquarter of 2000 to pay for outside services and employee contracts.  These
issuances were valued at $402,000.
