ITEM  2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
            CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

            The Company's revenues are generated by marketing and
distributing specialty PC-based software and hardware to
technical and professional PC users through its catalog
operations:  The Programmer's SuperShop (TPS), Personal Computing
Tools SuperShop (PCT), and New Media SuperShop (NMS).  In
addition, SDC Communications (SDCC) provides marketing services
to third-party manufacturers, developers and publishers of the
products the Company distributes.  Marketing services are
designed to generate sales leads, increase market visibility and
assist in the launch of new products.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

       The following information should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto:

  * Less than 1%


Revenues:  Total net revenues in the second quarter ended
September 30, 1995 increased $4,987,000, or 60%, to $13,361,000
from $8,374,000 in the second quarter ended September 30, 1994.

<PAGE>
      Net product sales increased $4,717,000, or 64%, to
$12,042,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from $7,325,000
in the second quarter of fiscal 1995.  The increase in product
revenue was primarily derived from the Company's corporate sales
group.  The corporate sales group's aggressive outbound selling
effort has enabled the Company to successfully establish major
account relationships.  Product revenue growth was accelerated by
an improving market for software development tools.

      Marketing services revenue increased $270,000, or 26%, to
$1,319,000 in the second quarter ended September 30, 1995 from
$1,049,000 in the second quarter ended September 30, 1994.  This
increase was mainly attributable to the quarterly marketing
programs designed for low-cost promotion of software
manufacturers' products.

Gross Margin:  Total gross margin increased $503,000, or 25%, to
$2,481,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from
$1,978,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1994.

      Gross margin from product sales increased $411,000, or 28%,
to $1,869,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from
$1,458,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1995.  The increase in
product gross margin was a result of the increased sales volume
generated by the Company's corporate sales group.  As a percent
of sales, however, gross margin from product revenue declined to
16% from 20%.  This decrease was caused by the continued
competitive pricing pressures that exist in the software
distribution market coupled with the volume discounts offered to
corporate customers.

      Gross margin from marketing services increased $92,000, or
18%, to $612,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995 from
$520,000 in the same period last year.  This increase was mainly
attributable to the quarterly marketing programs focused on
building major advertising account relationships.  These programs
tend to yield higher gross margins than the Company's catalogs. 


Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:  Selling, general
and administrative (SGA) expenses increased $528,000, or 28%, to
$2,418,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from $1,890,000
in the second quarter of fiscal 1995.  The increase in expenses
reflects planned headcount additions in the corporate sales group
in an effort to produce increased revenues.  SG&A as a percent of
net revenue declined to 18% from 23% reflecting the Company's
ability to leverage its existing operations to grow revenue.


Interest Expense:  Net interest expense decreased $16,000, or
28%, to $41,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from $57,000
in the second quarter of fiscal 1995.  This decrease was mainly
attributable to lower interest rates offered to the Company on
its line of credit.  

      The Company's quarterly operating results have varied and
may continue to vary significantly depending on factors such as
the timing of significant product marketing programs, the timing
of new product introductions, and the mix of service and product
sales.  Substantially all of the Company's product revenue in a
given quarter is derived from orders received in that particular
quarter.  Accordingly, delays in orders are likely to result in
the associated revenue not being realized by the Company in the
period.  Moreover, the Company's expense levels are based in
part on expectations of future revenue levels, and a shortfall in
expected revenue could therefore result in a disproportionate
decrease in the Company's net income.

Revenues:  Total net revenues for the six months ended September
30, 1995 increased $10,308,000, or 63%, to $26,567,000 from
$16,259,000 in the six months ended September 30, 1994.

      Net product sales increased $9,618,000, or 67%, to 
$23,912,000 in the six months ended September 30, 1995 from
$14,294,000 in the prior year period.  The increase in product
sales was primarily due the growth of the Company's corporate
sales group whose outbound selling effort has successfully
established major account relationships.  The growth in product
sales was accelerated by an improving software development tools
market and the expansion of the Company's corporate sales group.

      Marketing services revenue increased by $691,000, or 35%,
to $2,656,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1996 from
$1,965,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1995.  The increase
in marketing services revenue was the result of the Company's
newly developed quarterly marketing programs designed for the
low-cost promotion of software manufacturers' products.


Gross Margins:  Total gross margin increased $1,173,000, or 31%,
to $4,988,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1996 from
$3,815,000 in the comparable period in fiscal 1995.

      Gross margin from product sales increased $964,000, or 33%,
to $3,909,000 in the six month period ended September 30, 1995
from $2,945,000 in the same period last year.  The increase in
gross margin was a result of the sales volume growth generated
from the Company's corporate sales group.  As a percent of sales,
however, gross margin from product revenue for the six month
period declined to 16% from 21% a year ago.  This decrease was
caused by the continued competitive pricing pressures that exist
in the software distribution market coupled with the volume
discounts offered to corporate customers.

      Gross margin from marketing services increased 24%, or
$208,000 to $1,078,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1996
from $870,000 for the same period in fiscal 1995.  The increase
in marketing services gross margin was attributable to the
Company's quarterly marketing programs focused on building major
account relationships.  These programs tend to yield higher gross
margins than the Company's catalog publications.


Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:  Selling, general 
and administrative (SGA) expenses increased $1,079,000, or 30%,
in the first six months of fiscal 1996 to $4,730,000 from
$3,651,000 in the same period in fiscal 1995. The increase in SGA
expenses was mainly attributable to planned headcount additions
in the corporate sales group designed to produce increased
revenues.  As a percentage of sales, however, SGA  expenses
decreased to 18% from 22% for the six month periods, reflecting
the Company's ability to leverage its existing operations to grow
revenue.


Interest Expense:  Interest expense decreased by $26,000, or 24%,
to $82,000 for the six month period ended September 30, 1995 from
$108,000 for the same period last year.  The decline in interest
expense was the result of lower interest rates offered to the
Company on its line of credit.

       activities                          (16)           (18)

      The Company's net cash balance increased $646,000 to
$981,000 at September 30, 1995 from $335,000 at March 31, 1995. 
Cash generated by operating activities of $771,000 was achieved
during the first six months of fiscal 1996 primarily from net
income from operations.

      Accounts receivable-trade increased 17% to $5,145,000 at
September 30, 1995 from $4,414,000 at March 31, 1995.  This
increase resulted from the Company's revenue growth.  The Company
continues to maintain an expanded collections program that has
yielded favorable collection results.

      The Company has a $2,000,000 secured bank line of credit
under which borrowings bear interest at the bank's prime rate
plus 1%.  The line is subject to renewal on January 5, 1996. 
Available borrowings under the line are based on 80% of eligible
accounts receivable.  Covenants under the line of credit require
the Company to maintain certain net worth and financial ratios. 
The Company is currently in default of certain financial
covenants and has received a written waiver for the period
September 30, 1995 with the condition that the maximum borrowings
under the credit facility be limited to the current outstanding
balance until such time as a new credit restructuring is agreed
upon.  The Company and the bank are currently in the process of
renegotiating the line of credit and the covenants governing the
agreement which have caused past defaults.  

<PAGE>
      The Company anticipates that its existing cash resources,
cash flow from operations and the continued availability of its
bank line of credit will be sufficient to fund its operations
through March 31, 1996, provided it meets its operating plan and
remains in compliance with its credit agreement.  The Company's
ability to finance its operations will be dependent on its
ability to renegotiate its bank line of credit for a continued
availability of borrowing thereunder.  There can be no assurance 
that the Company will be successful in renegotiating its line of
credit or that the bank will permit continued borrowings under
its line of credit.  If the Company is unsuccessful in
renegotiating its line of credit with the bank, it will need to
seek alternative financing for working capital.  Future capital
requirements will depend on many factors, including cash
flow from continuing operations, competition from larger catalog
distributors and market developments, and the Company's ability
to distribute products and marketing services successfully.  To
the extent cash flow from operations is insufficient to fund the
Company's activities, it may be necessary to raise additional
funds through equity or debt financing.  The Company is exploring
additional sources of capital; however, there are currently no
firm commitments at this time.  Additional debt financings will
likely result in higher interest charges.   Additional
equity financings will likely result in dilution of stockholders'
interests.  The Company's ability to generate cash from
operations depends upon, among other things, revenue growth,
improvements in operating productivity, its credit and payment
terms with vendors and collections of accounts receivable.  The
Company's ability to borrow under this facility is dependent upon
satisfying certain financial covenants, and there can be no
assurances that the Company will remain in compliance.  If such
sources of cash prove insufficient, the Company will be required
to make changes in its operations or to seek additional debt or
equity financing.  There can be no assurances that cash generated
from operations and borrowings under its credit facility will be
sufficient to meet its operating requirements, or if required,
that additional debt or equity financing will be available
on terms acceptable to the Company.  The Company currently
anticipates that its available cash, expected cash flow from
operations, and its borrowing capacity will be sufficient to fund
operations through March 31, 1996.

      In June 1995, the Company became aware of information
indicating that cash and other accrued expenses had been reported
improperly in fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1995 by the accounting staff
while implementing controls and procedures associated with the
new computerized transaction processing system installed in
fiscal 1994.  As a result of this information, the Company
restated its financial statements for the year ended March 31,
1994.

      The effect on the results of the restatement of the quarter
ended September 30, 1994 is as follows:

      There have been no changes in securities during the quarter
ended September 30, 1995.



ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
      
      At September 30, 1995, the Company was in default of
certain financial covenants relating to its line of credit and a

its line of credit.



ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

      On September 14, 1995 the Board of Directors caused to be
distributed to stockholders of record as of September 1, 1995, a
Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, Proxy and a Proxy
Statement for the Annual Meeting, held on October 18, 1995.  As
