                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)
                               September 30, 2000


NOTE 1 - UNAUDITED INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310 (b) of
Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
reflect all adjustments (which comprise only normal recurring accruals)
necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of
September 30, 2000, and the results of its operations for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 and its cash flows for the nine
month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. Information included in the
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 has been derived from the
Company's audited financial statements contained in its Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999, to which reference is made.
Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 2000.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform with the
2000 presentation.

NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the
first-in, first-out method for machine parts and specific identification for
machines held for sale.

NOTE 3 - CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS

The Company capitalizes computer software development costs in accordance with
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86;
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise
Marketed". Costs incurred to establish the technological feasibility of computer
software are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for product enhancements,
subsequent to establishing technological feasibility, are capitalized and stated
at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Capitalized costs are amortized
using the straight-line method over five years, which approximates the estimated
remaining useful life of the product. It is possible that the estimated economic
life of the products and related carrying values could be reduced in the near
term due to competitive pressures. Amortization of computer software costs
amounted to $497,285 and $436,200 for the nine month periods ended September 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively, and $171,589 and $148,279 for the three month
periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999.

NOTE 4 - REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue Recognition - Revenue from equipment and system sales is recognized upon
shipment to the buyer and satisfaction of related obligations by the Company.
Revenue from software licensing is recognized on either delivery of the software
if collectibility is probable or upon completion of the majority of the product,
which equates to reaching a milestone in accordance with the contract, and any
remaining insignificant obligations of the Company are accounted for by
deferring a pro rata portion of revenue and recognizing it either ratably as the
obligations are fulfilled or on completion of performance, or by recording a
current year expense for the remaining costs associated with completing the
project.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 101 - Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. The Staff
Accounting Bulletin summarizes certain of the staff's views in applying
generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial
statements. The staff is providing this guidance, due, in part, to the large
number of revenue recognition issues that registrants encounter. Implementation
of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 must occur no later than the fourth fiscal
quarter of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of the implementation of Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 101. As this Staff Accounting Bulletin is not intended to change
current guidance in the accounting literature, management of the Company
believes that the implementation of such will not have an impact on its
financial statements. However, implementation may require restatement of the
Company's financial statements.

NOTE 5 - EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE REVENUE

Equipment maintenance and service revenue is recognized as earned over the term
of the contract, which is generally a maximum of one year in length. Deferred
revenue represents the unearned portion of equipment maintenance and service
fees.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

At September 30, 2000, the Company was committed under noncancelable, operating
leases for office space, automobiles and office equipment, expiring at various
dates through June 2004, requiring minimum rental payments as follows:

YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31:

      2000          $   81,521 (Balance of Year)
      2001             316,319
      2002             303,940
      2003             303,940
      2004              60,224
                    ----------
                    $1,065,944

NOTE 7 - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to
common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to
the computation of basic earnings per share except that the denominator is
increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been
outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. For the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the dilutive
effect on earnings per common share was insignificant.

NOTE 8 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company will adopt Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133" ("SFAS 137") and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133"
("SFAS 138"). SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts and for hedging purposes. SFAS 133 requires that an entity
recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of
financial condition and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting
for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the
derivative. SFAS 138 adds to the accounting guidance for derivative instruments
and hedging activities. SFAS 133 as amended by SFAS 138 is intended to be
comprehensive guidance on accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. As
of September 30, 2000, the Company did not have any derivatives as defined under
SFAS 133. Therefore, the adoption of the new accounting standards will not have
an effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.

NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

During October 2000, the Company entered into a letter of intent (the "Letter")
to purchase certain assets of another company for approximately $235,000 plus
commission amounts as set forth in the Letter. Such assets are primarily
intellectual property rights, patents, copyrights, trademarks and other trade
secrets, tangible assets and certain other intangible assets such as customers
lists and unfilled purchase contracts. No liabilities will be assumed by the
Company other than those specifically agreed to by the Company. The Company
expects the closing of such sale to take place by November 30, 2000. However,
there can be no guarantee that this transaction will take place.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Reference is made to Item 6 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
Operation", contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for its year
ended December 31, 1999, for a discussion of the Company's financial condition
as of December 31, 1999, including a discussion of the Company's anticipated
liquidity and working capital requirements during 2000.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains, in addition to historical
information, certain forward-looking statements that involve significant risks
and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on management's
belief as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to,
management pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can generally be
identified as such because the context of the statement may include words such
as the Company "believes", "expects" or words of similar import. Similarly,
statements that describe the Company's future plans, objectives, estimates or
goals are also forward-looking statements. Such statements address future events
and conditions concerning capital expenditures, earnings, sales, liquidity and
capital resources, and accounting matters. The Company's actual results could
differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking
statements contained herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "Financial
Condition" below and in Item 1 - "Description of Business" and elsewhere in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999, as
well as factors such as future economic conditions and economic conditions in
the industries in which the Company's customers compete, a determination by the
Company's customers to prolong their test cycles of the Company's equipment,
software and software support services, a determination by the Company's
customers to modify or change their underlying computer and cash reporting
systems, acceptance by customers of the Company's products, changes in customer
demand, legislative, regulatory and competitive developments in markets in which

COMPARISON OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
2000 (THE "2000 QUARTER") TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 (THE
"1999 QUARTER").

Total revenues for the 2000 Quarter were $2,821,700, an increase of $334,685
(13.5%) from the 1999 Quarter. Equipment and systems sales increased by $309,351
(17.0%) from $1,820,171 in the 1999 Quarter to $2,129,522 in the 2000 Quarter,
primarily due to an increase in sales of hardware products. Maintenance and
service revenue increased by $25,334 (3.8%) from $666,844 in the 1999 Quarter to
$692,178 in the 2000 Quarter, due to more systems being under contract.

Cost of equipment and systems sales increased from 43.7% of sales in the 1999
Quarter to 60.2% of sales in the 2000 Quarter due to greater sales of hardware,
which carry higher costs than software. Cost of maintenance and service
decreased from 34.6% of such revenue in the 1999 Quarter to 33.6% of such
revenue in the 2000 Quarter due to lower costs from a third party vendor.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $1,128,544 in the 2000 Quarter
were substantially unchanged (an increase of $2,263 from the 1999 Quarter)
primarily due to an increase in commissions resulting from an increase in sales,
offset by a reduction in various other expenses.

Net interest income of $22,547 in the 2000 Quarter was $2,269 (9.1%) less than
in the 1999 Quarter, even though interest rates in the 2000 Quarter were higher
than in the 1999 Quarter, due to a decrease in funds available for investment
during the 2000 Quarter.

Income tax expense for the 1999 Quarter was $152,000 compared to $87,000 in the
2000 Quarter. This decrease of $65,000 (42.8%) was due to the comparable
decrease in income from operations.

As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased by $92,468 (44.8%) to
$113,926 in the 2000 Quarter from $206,394 in the 1999 Quarter.

COMPARISON OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
2000 (THE "2000 PERIOD") TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 (THE "1999
PERIOD").

Total revenues for the 2000 Period were $8,288,023, a decrease of $1,734,111
(17.3%) from the 1999 Period. Equipment and system sales decreased by $1,730,191
(21.8%) to $6,208,756, in the 2000 Period, due primarily to significant orders
received in the 1999 Period which were not repeated in the 2000 Period.
Maintenance and service revenue was substantially unchanged in the 2000 Period
(a decrease of $3,920 from the 1999 Period).

Due to an unfavorable product mix of higher hardware sales and lower software
sales, cost of equipment and system sales increased to 56.9% of sales in the
2000 Period compared to 46.8% of sales in the 1999 Period. Cost of maintenance
and service decreased from 39.3% of such revenue in the 1999 Period to 35.1% of
such revenue in the 2000 Period, primarily due to lower costs from a third party
vendor and a reduction in the number of personnel working with contracted
maintenance.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $3,857,577 in the 2000 Period
were $50,583 (1.3%) higher than in the 1999 Period. Higher salaries and
additional staff in the 2000 Period were offset, in part, by a decrease in
commissions resulting from a decrease in sales.

Net interest income of $64,008 in the 2000 Period was $19,873 (45.0%) more than
in the 1999 Period due to an increase in funds available for investment in the
2000 Period, as a result of prepayments of certain contracts, and higher
interest rates on investments.

Income tax expense for the 2000 Period was $114,654 compared to $715,000 in the
1999 Period. This decrease was due to the comparable decrease in income from
operations.

As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased by $895,763 (88.5%) to
$116,718 in the 2000 Period from $1,012,481 in the 1999 Period.

FINANCIAL CONDITION:

At September 30, 2000, the Company had working capital of $3,271,560 (an
increase of $229,304 from $3,042,256 at December 31, 1999) and cash and cash
equivalents (including short term investments) of $604,962 (as compared to
$1,768,847 at December 31, 1999).

During the first nine months of 2000, operating activities used $707,431 of net
cash, primarily for payments of current liabilities and increases in inventory.
Investing activities used $465,492 of net cash, primarily for software
development.

The Company has a $750,000 discretionary line of credit for the Company's
short-term needs, at an interest rate equal to the bank's prime rate plus 1/2 %.
All advances under this line of credit are required to be secured by a lien on
substantially all of the Company's assets. Also, the Company has a standby term
line of credit for $150,000 (solely for the purchase of equipment) at an
interest rate equal to the bank's prime rate plus 1%. The Company has not
utilized the discretionary or standby lines of credit since February 1998.

The Company believes that its current working capital, together with anticipated
funds from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's projected
operating needs and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

In 1998, the Company commenced a program to repurchase up to 500,000 shares of
its common stock from time to time in the over-the-counter market. The Company
is continuing such program during 2000 and, through November 9, 2000, the
Company purchased 270,500 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of
$283,919.

The Company leases its facilities. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had no
material commitments for capital expenditures.
