 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
 Condition and Results of Operations

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 General: During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the
 Partnership generated cash flow of $62,000 and $118,000 from
 operating activities and equipment sales, respectively. The
 Partnership expects that revenue from leases and equipment sales
 will be the primary sources of Partnership revenues for 1996, and
 that proceeds from equipment sales will represent an increasing
 percentage of total Partnership revenues as leases expire and the
 equipment is sold. Included in cash flow from operating
 activities was $23,000 in proceeds from the redemption by the
 Partnership of certain warrants which were obtained at the time
 certain lessees' leases were obtained. Proceeds from the
 redemption of warrants are expected to fluctuate and are not
 expected to be a substantial source of Partnership revenue for
 the foreseeable future.

 The general partner believes that the Partnership's working
 capital reserves at March 31, 1996, should be sufficient to meet
 capital and operating requirements for the foreseeable future.
 The general partner intends to liquidate and dissolve the
 Partnership as soon as practicable after the June 1996 scheduled
 termination of the remaining leases.

 Leases: At March 31, 1996, the Partnership owned approximately
 3% of its original equipment portfolio, all of which was on lease
 and generating revenue. During 1996, all leases are scheduled to
 expire. The Managing Agent is contacting each lessee to discuss
 equipment purchase options. However, there is no assurance that
 the lessees will purchase the equipment upon expiration of their
 leases. Equipment not purchased by lessees is returned to the
 Partnership and held in inventory for eventual sale to third
 parties. The sale of equipment to third parties generally results
 in a lower sales price than if the lessee purchases its leased
 equipment upon expiration of the lease.

 Warrants: At March 31, 1996, the Partnership held warrants to
 purchase approximately 587,088 shares of capital stock of 16
 current and former lessees. It is expected that the Partnership
 will hold these warrants until such time as the general partner
 and Managing Agent determine that disposition would be
 advantageous for the Partnership. However, there is no assurance
 that the warrants or underlying shares of capital stock will
 acquire or retain any value. The warrants are not afforded any
 value on the financial statements.

 Distributions: The Partnership did not make any distributions to
 partners during the three months ended March 31, 1996. Through
 March 31, 1996, distributions paid to limited partners have
 totaled $51,688,000 or approximately 103.4% of original limited
 partner invested capital. The general partner intends to make a
 cash distribution to limited partners on or about May 15, 1996.
 No other distributions will be made until the Partnership
 terminates and liquidates.

 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 Lease revenue decreased during the three months ended March 31,
 1996, compared to the corresponding 1995 period, due to lease
 expirations and equipment sales. Interest revenue decreased in
 the 1996 period compared to the 1995 period, due to lower average
 cash balances in 1996. The Partnership recognized $23,000 of
 revenue from the redemption of stock warrants for the three
 months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $18,000 in the
 corresponding 1995 period.

 Depreciation expense decreased in the 1996 period compared to the
 corresponding 1995 period, due primarily to equipment sales and
 the Partnership's use of accelerated methods of depreciation,
 which result in smaller deductions in the later years of
 equipment ownership.

 Management fees, which are directly related to lease revenues and
 cash flows of the Partnership as defined in the Limited
 Partnership Agreement, decreased during the 1996 period compared
 to the 1995 period. Commitment fees, which are related to average
 capital at risk in accordance with the Purchase Commitment,
 decreased during the 1996 period compared to the 1995 period.
 General and administrative expenses decreased during the 1996
 period compared to the 1995 period, primarily as a result of
 reduced management services.

 A net gain on equipment sales of $8,000 was recognized during the
 three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to a net loss of
 $14,000 in the corresponding 1995 period.
