NOTE 5 - Shareholders' Equity

a private  placement to multiple investors for $6.26 per share; the  net
proceeds from  the  sale were $4.1 million. The proceeds were used primarily
to fund  the settlement  of the Company's shareholder class action lawsuit.
(See Note  6  for related discussion.)

NOTE 6 - Shareholders Litigation Settlement

In  early August 1995, the Company made a payment totaling $3.6 million, and
the Company's  insurance carrier paid $3 million which the Company had
recorded  in prepaid expenses and other assets at July 1, 1995, liquidating
the July 1,  1995 $6.6  million  accrual.  On  August 28, 1995, the  federal
court  approved  the settlement agreement.

December 30,  1995,  an  increase of $1.2 million or 7% from the prior
quarter,  and  an increase of $0.5 million or 2% from the same quarter of the
prior year.   During the  latter  part  of  the first quarter of fiscal 1995
the  Company  began  to separate  and analyze its product lines in terms of
"Truevision" and "RasterOps" products.   The Truevision product line
consists of all video and OEM products, while RasterOps product line consists
of Macintosh and  PC graphics acceleration cards  and  monitors.  At that
time, the Company elected to terminate its entire PC graphics product line,
reduce its dependency upon monitor sales and focus its future on its
higher-margin Truevision (desktop digital video) product line.

The  results  for the quarter ended December 30, 1995 are comprised of
revenues from  the  Truevision line, an increase of $2.1 million or 13% from
the $16.1 million in the prior quarter, and an increase of $7.7 million or
73%  from the  $10.5 million in the same quarter of the prior year.  The
results  for  the quarters  ended  September 30, 1995 and December 31,  1994
also  included  $0.9 million and $7.2 million, respectively, of revenue from
RasterOps graphic  cards and  monitors as well as other graphics related
revenues. The product mix change in  terms  of  revenue dollars is due to a
shift in the Company's product  focus during fiscal 1995.

During  fiscal 1995 the Company also began focusing its efforts on building
its OEM  customer  base. Sales to OEM's during the quarter ended December
30,  1995 were  $10.4 million or 57% of total net sales, compared to
$9.2 million  or  54% for  the  prior  quarter,  and $4.1 million or 23% for
the same quarter  of  the prior  year.  During fiscal 1995, the Company
negotiated a three-year  agreement with  Avid Technology, Inc. ("Avid") which
accounted for 42% of total net  sales for  the quarter ended December 30,
1995. During the quarter ended September 30, 1995 and the quarter and fiscal
year ended July 1, 1995, Avid accounted for 42%, 29% and 16%, respectively,
of the Company's revenues.

International  net  sales were $4.4 million for the quarter ended  December
30, 1995,  an increase of   $0.9 million from the $3.5 million in the prior
quarter, and an increase of $0.6 million from the $3.8 million in the same
quarter in the prior  year. International net sales represented 24% of total
net sales for  the quarter ended December 30, 1995, compared to 20% for the
prior quarter, and  21% for the same quarter of the prior year.

Truevision's  non-OEM customers generally place orders on an  "as-needed"
basis and,  as  a result, backlog at the beginning of each quarter represents
only  a portion  of the product sales anticipated in that quarter. Quarterly
net  sales and  operating  results therefore depend on the volume and  timing
of  bookings received  during  a  quarter, which are difficult to forecast.
The  absence  of backlog also limits the Company's ability to predict
appropriate production  and inventory  levels, which has had and could have
in the future an adverse  effect on  operating  results. Truevision's results
of operations  may  fluctuate  from quarter  to  quarter due to these and
other factors, such as  announcements  by Truvision,  its  competitors  or
the  manufacturers  of  the  platforms   which Truevision's products are used.

GROSS  PROFIT.  The Company had a gross profit of $7.0 million or 38.4%  of
net sales during the quarter ended December 30, 1995, compared to a gross
profit  of $6.2  million or 36.4% of net sales in the prior quarter, and a
gross profit  of $5.8 million or 32.6% of net sales for the same quarter in
the prior year.   The increase  in  gross profit is mainly due to the
Company's net sales including  a higher  percentage  of video graphics
products that carry higher  gross  margins than the monitor and Macintosh
graphics acceleration products.  Also included in net  sales  for  the
quarter ended December 31, 1994 were low  margin  graphics products  for
which the Company had previously recorded reserves reducing  such products to
their net realizable value.

RESEARCH  AND  DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES.    Research and development  expenses
were approximately  10%  of net sales for the quarters ended December  30,
1995  and September 30, 1995, and approximately 9% for the same quarter in
the prior year. In  the  absence  of unusual circumstances or events, the
Company  expects  that research  and  development  spending  as  a
percentage  of  net sales  will  remain relatively constant through the
remainder of fiscal 1996.

The  Company  believes that continued investment in research and development
is critical  to  its  future  growth and competitive position  in  its
market  for broadcast  video  and color imaging systems and is directly
related  to  timely development  of  new  and  enhanced  products.   The
Company,  therefore,   may experience  increased  research  and development
spending  in  future  periods. Because  of the inherent uncertainty of
development projects, there  can  be  no assurance  that  increased  research
and development  efforts  will  result  in successful product introductions
or enable to maintain or increase sales.

SELLING,   GENERAL   AND   ADMINISTRATIVE  EXPENSES.    Selling,   general
and administrative  expenses were approximately 23% of net sales  for  the
quarters ended  December 30, 1995 and September 30, 1995, and approximately
25%  for  the same  quarter  in  the prior year.  In the absence of unusual
circumstances  or events, the Company expects that selling, general and
administrative spending as a  percentage of net sales will remain relatively
constant through the remainder  of fiscal 1996.

CURRENT SIX-MONTH PERIOD COMPARED TO PRIOR YEAR SIX-MONTH PERIOD

NET  SALES.  Total net sales were $35.2 million for the six-month  period
ended December  30, 1995, an increase of $1.2 million or 4% from the
$34.0 million  in the  same period of the prior year.  During the latter part
of the first quarter of  fiscal 1995 the Company began to separate and analyze
its product  lines  in terms of "Truevision" and "RasterOps" products as
discussed above.

The  results for the six-months ended December 30, 1995 are comprised  of
$34.3 million  of  Truevision revenues and $0.9 million of RasterOps
revenues.   This compares with $19.2 million and $14.8 million, respectively,
in the same  period of  the prior year. The product mix change in terms of
revenue dollars is due to a shift in the Company's product focus during
fiscal 1995.

During  fiscal 1995 the Company also began focusing its efforts on building
its OEM  customer  base.  Sales to OEM's during the six-month period ended
December 30,  1995 were $19.6 million or 56% of total net sales compared to
$6.8  million or  20%  for the same period of the prior year.  During fiscal
1995, the Company negotiated  a  three-year agreement with Avid which
accounted for 42% of total net sales for the six-month period ended December
30, 1995, compared to 10% for the same period of the prior year.

                                     -9-

<PAGE>


International  net  sales  were  $7.9 million for  the  six-month  period
ended December 30, 1995, a decrease of $0.2 million from the $8.1 million in
the  same period of the prior year.  International net sales represented 22%
of total  net sales for the six-month period ended December 30, 1995,
compared to 24% for  the same period of the prior year.

GROSS  PROFIT. The Company had a gross profit of $13.2 million or 37.4%  of
net sales  during the six-month period ended December 30, 1995, compared to a
gross profit  of  $3.3 million or 9.7% of net sales for the same period in
the  prior year.  In  the quarter ended September 30, 1994, the Company
recorded additional inventory  reserves  of  $6.0 million (excluding the $1.9
million  included  in restructuring costs) to reduce inventory to its
estimated net realizable  values to  reflect  management's current plans and
market expectations.  The  Company's gross  margins  have  improved as the
Company shifted its focus  to  developing, manufacturing  and selling more
high-margin desktop video products  and  at  the same time exiting the
low-margin monitor business.

RESEARCH  AND  DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES.  For both six-month periods ended
December 30,  1995  and  December  31,  1994,  research  and  development
expenses  were approximately  10%  of  net  sales. In the absence of unusual
circumstances  or events,  the  Company  expects  that research  and
development  spending  as  a percentage  of net sales will remain relatively
constant through the  remainder  of fiscal 1996.

SELLING,   GENERAL   AND   ADMINISTRATIVE   EXPENSES.   Selling,   general
and administrative expense decreased $4.1 million to $8.2 million  for  the
six-month period ended December 30, 1995, compared to $12.3 million for the
same period  of  the prior year.  As a percentage of net sales, selling,
general  and administrative  expense decreased to 23% in the six-month period
ended  December 30, 1995, compared with 36% for the same period of the prior
year.  The decrease of  $4.1 million is primarily due to increased expenses
in the six-month  period of  the prior year due to: (1) increased reserves
for bad debts attributable  to two  of  the Company's foreign distributors;
(2) lease terminations;   and  (3) legal  fees.   Additionally, the Company
instituted ongoing efforts for reducing the  Company's  overhead costs after
the first quarter of fiscal  1995.  In  the absence  of  unusual
circumstances or events, the Company expects that  selling, general  and
administrative  spending as a  percentage  of net sales  will  remain
relatively constant through the remainder of fiscal 1996.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES RECORDED IN THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1994

During  the quarter ended September 30, 1994, the Company recorded a charge
for restructuring  and  other  costs of $3.7 million.  Late  in  the  quarter
ended September 30, 1994, the Company made the decision to terminate the
production of its  entire  PC graphics product line which consisted of a
variety  of  graphics acceleration  cards.  The Company established a reserve
in the  amount  of  $1.9 million to reduce the related inventory to net
realizable value, and during  the quarter  ended December 31, 1994, adjusted
the reserve downward by $1.5  million for  sales  of  related  products.
The Company  believes  that  the  remaining inventory  is adequately
reserved.  Due to the discontinuance of these products, the  Company
recorded  additional  charges  aggregating  $383,000  for  prepaid royalties
no longer having economic value and cancellation charges on inventory
purchase  commitments.   Also included in the restructuring  charge  were
costs aggregating  $1.2 million associated with downsizing of the Company's
worldwide operations,  including  lease  termination for offices  located  in
California, Indiana,  Germany,  France,  United Kingdom and Japan  and
employee  severance. These lease terminations will reduce facilities and

                                    -10-

<PAGE>

amortization expenses by  $296,000  during  the remainder of fiscal 1995.  The
reserve  for employee severance  has  been fully utilized.  The Company has a
remaining restructuring reserve   balance  of  $261,000  as  of  December  30,
1995 related to this restructuring.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For  the  quarter  ended  December 30, 1995,  the  Company  had  cash  and
cash equivalents of $6.3 million, a decrease of $1.5 million from the $7.8
million at September  30,  1995.   For the six-month period ended December
30,  1995,  the Company's  cash  and  cash equivalents decreased $4.1
million  from  the  $10.4 million  at July 1, 1995.  Working capital
increased from $14.2 million at  July 1,  1995  to  $20.4  million at
December 30, 1995.  During the six-month  period ended  December 30, 1995,
net cash used in operating activities was $8.8 million compared  to $1.5
million during the six-month period ended December  31,  1994. The  increase
in  cash  used in operating activities is due  primarily  to  the Company's
settlement payment of $3.6 million made in August 1995 related to  the
shareholder class action lawsuit, and an increase of accounts receivable due
to increased revenues.

The  Company spent approximately $0.6 million and $0.2 million for new
equipment during  the  six-month periods ended December 30, 1995 and
December  31,  1994, respectively.   Additionally, the Company acquired new
equipment  under  capital leases  totaling $0.4 million  in the six-month
period ended December 30,  1995. The Company has no material commitments for
the purchase of capital equipment.

Substantially   all  of  the  Company's  sales  are  made  directly   to
OEMs, distributors, value added resellers (VAR's), authorized independent
dealers  and retail  chains.   While the Company intends to continue its
policy  of  careful inventory  and  receivables management, it believes that
in the future  somewhat greater  levels of inventory and receivables relative
to sales may be needed  to serve its distribution channels.

The  Company  satisfied  its cash requirements for the  six-month  period
ended December  30, 1995 primarily from its beginning balance of
$10.4 million,  funds generated  from  the issuance of the Company's common
stock in August 1995 and proceeds from sales under the employee stock purchase
plan  and  stock  options exercised.  For the six-month period ended December
31, 1994, the Company's cash requirements were satisfied primarily from its
beginning balance of $8.3 million and  cash  generated  from operations. The
Company has a  bank  line  of  credit agreement  allowing  it  to borrow up
to $7 million based  upon  percentages  of eligible  accounts  receivable.
As  of December  30,  1995,  the  Company  had borrowings of $2.5 million
under the bank line of credit and guarantees  through issuance of letters of
credit to suppliers of $1.3 million.

The  Company  believes that its current cash and cash generated from
operations together  with  its existing credit facilities will be sufficient
to  meet  the Company's cash requirements for at least the next year.

The  Company believes that success in its industry requires substantial
capital in  order to maintain the flexibility to take advantage of
opportunities as they may  arise.   The  Company  may,  from time to  time,
as  market  and  business conditions  warrant, invest in or acquire
complementary businesses, products  or technologies.   The Company may effect
additional equity or debt  financings  to fund  such  activities.   The  sale
of additional  equity  or  convertible  debt securities  could result in
additional dilution in the equity ownership  of  the Company's shareholders.
