                NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                (Unaudited)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited,  consolidated financial statements of
Government Technology Services, Inc. ("GTSI" or the "Company") have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, therefore, omit or condense certain
footnotes and other information normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  This
report should be read in conjunction with the audited financials for the
year ended December 31, 1997 and the accompanying Notes to the Financial
Statements, contained in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  In
the opinion of Management, all adjustments, consisting primarily of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of interim period
results have been made.  The interim results reflected in the consolidated
financial statements are not necessarily indicative of results expected for
the full year, or future periods.

     Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to
the current year financial statement presentation.

     EARNINGS PER SHARE.  Effective December 31, 1997, the Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 128, "Earnings Per
Share," which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per
share on the face of the income statement for all periods presented.  Basic
earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to
issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or
resulted in the issuance of common stock that subsequently share in the
earnings of the entity.  Outstanding common stock options and common stock
purchase warrants were not included in the calculation of diluted per share
results for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and the six month periods
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, since the effect of which would result in
anti-dilutive per-share results.

     NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS.  In June 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued SFAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," and SFAS
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." 
SFAS 130 establishes standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components, and SFAS 131 establishes new
standards for public companies to report information about their operating
segments, products and services, geographic areas and major customers. 
SFAS 130 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 31, 1997.  Accordingly, effective January 1, 1998,
the Company adopted SFAS 130 and in accordance therewith, the Company's
Comprehensive Income equals reported "Net Income (Loss)."  SFAS 131 is

                                                                          7
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997; however, in the initial year of application, SFAS 131
need not be applied to interim financial statements.

2.   NOTES PAYABLE TO BANKS

     On May 2, 1996, the Company executed a three-year credit facility with
a bank (the "Principal Lender") for $40.0 million and a one-year credit
facility with the Other Lenders for an additional $55.0 million
(collectively, the "Credit Facility").  Additionally, on June 27, 1996, the
Company executed a separate $10.0 million facility with the Principal
Lender for inventory financing of vendor products (the "Wholesale Financing
Facility").  Interest under the inventory financing facility is accrued at
a rate equal to prime plus 3.00% (11.25% at December 31, 1996).  On August
23, 1996, the Company and its banks executed Amendment No. 1 to the Credit
Facility, which modified certain quarterly financial covenants.

     On July 28, 1997, the Company and its banks executed the Second
Amended and Restated Business Credit and Security Agreement (the "Credit
Agreement").  The agreement modified some of the terms and conditions
contained in the Credit Facility and effectively eliminated the Company's
default condition with certain 1996 year-end financial covenants. The total
amount available under the Credit Facility was reduced from a total of $95
million to $60 million, with an additional $30 million reduction during the
period February 1 through July 31 of each year.  Further, the Wholesale
Financing Facility was increased from $10 million to $20 million, with a
$10 million reduction during the period March 1 through July 31 of each
year.  Other modifications included the revision of the Credit Facility's
term to one year with a one-year automatic renewal, the addition of an
unused line fee, an increase in the interest rate accrued against
outstanding borrowings, and the modification of all financial covenants.

     At December 31, 1997, the Company was not in compliance with the
annual covenant covering Net Income and the fourth quarter covenant related
to Tangible Net Worth.  On February 3, 1998, the Company obtained waivers
from the agent for all covenant violations at December 31, 1997.  Amounts
due to the lenders as of December 31, 1997 are classified as current
liabilities and the available portion of the Credit Facility at December
31, 1997 was approximately $18.7 million.

     On February 11, 1998, the Credit Agreement was revised to, among other
things, limit the total amount available under the facility to $60 million
for an additional two months.  The total available under the facility was
reduced to $30 million only during the period April 1, 1998 to July 31,
1998.  As for the Wholesale Financing Facility, the amount available under
the agreement remained at $20 million and was to be used solely for
inventory purchases.  The amount available was reduced to $10 million only
during the period April 1, 1998 to July 31, 1998.  All other material terms
of both facilities remained the same.

     On July 2, 1998, the Company and its banks executed separate
amendments adjusting, among other things, the seasonality of the total
amount available under the Credit Facility and the Wholesale Financing 
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
                                                                          8
Facility, respectively, in any calendar year.  The limit of the Credit
Facility will increase to $75 million during the period October 1 through
January 31.  During the periods February 1 through April 30 and July 1
through September 30, the total amount available under the Credit Facility
will be limited to $50 million.  During the period May 1 through June 30,
the total amount available under the Credit Facility will be limited to $30
million.  In addition, the interest rate under the Credit Facility was
amended to a rate of LIBOR plus 2.45%, payable quarterly; reducing to LIBOR
plus 2.25% if, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30,
1998, the Company achieves certain quarterly financial covenants.  Prior to
execution of these amendments, the interest rate under the Credit Agreement
was LIBOR plus 2.95% (8.64% at June 30, 1998).  The limit of the Wholesale
Financing Facility will remain at $20 million during the period June 1
through January 31, and decrease to $10 million during the period February
1 through May 31, of any calendar year.  All other material terms of both
facilities remained the same.

     At June 30, 1998, the Company was in compliance with all quarterly
financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Borrowing is
limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable.  The Credit Facility is
substantially secured by all of the operating assets of the Company. 
Current obligations are first funded and then all cash receipts are
automatically applied to reduce outstanding borrowings.  The Credit
Facility also contains certain covenants that include restrictions on the
payment of dividends and the repurchase of the Company's Common Stock, as
well as provisions specifying compliance with certain quarterly and annual
financial statistical ratios.

3.   ACQUISITION

     On February 12, 1998, the Company entered into and closed on an Asset
Purchase Agreement with BTG, Inc. and two of its subsidiaries
(collectively, "BTG") under which the Company acquired substantially all of
the assets of the BTG division that resells computer hardware, software and
integrated systems to the Government (the "BTG Division").  The acquired
assets consisted primarily of inventory and rights under certain contracts
and intangible personal property, along with furniture, fixtures, supplies
and equipment.  In addition, the Company assumed certain liabilities under
specified contracts of BTG as well as certain liabilities arising from the
ownership or operation of the acquired assets after the closing.  The
Company paid at closing $7,325,265 in cash (after a $174,735 adjustment for
accrued vacation liability and satisfaction of an outstanding invoice owed
by BTG) and issued 15,375 shares, having a liquidation preference of
$15,375,000, of a new series of preferred stock designated Series C 8%
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series C Preferred Stock").  The
Company paid an additional $500,000 in cash upon the release of liens on
certain items of equipment which are part of the acquired assets.  A
portion of the consideration, $800,000 in cash and 1,538 shares of Series C
Preferred Stock, is being held under an escrow agreement to secure BTG's
indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement.  Under the
Asset Purchase Agreement, BTG is obligated to repay to the Company up to
$4.5 million to the extent that there is a shortfall in the amounts that
the Company receives from dispositions of certain inventory acquired.

                                                                          9
     Subsequent to the closing, BTG delivered to the Company certain other
inventory ("Surplus Inventory") for which BTG submitted an invoice to the
Company in the amount of $3,500,000, as estimated by BTG, payable net 90
days.  By letter dated May 15, 1998, the Company and BTG agreed that BTG
would invoice (payable on June 30, 1998) GTSI an aggregate of $3,912,419.58
($3,500,000 of which had previously been invoiced) for Surplus Inventory. 
In addition, the parties agreed that on June 30, 1998, BTG would pay to the
Company $1 million, which would constitute full and complete payment for
any inventory shortfall as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement, as
well as $250,000 for costs associated with processing the Surplus
Inventory.

     Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to
convene a meeting of stockholders no later than January 1, 1999 to approve
a proposal to convert the Series C Preferred Stock into 3,000,000 shares of
Common Stock (the "Conversion Proposal"), and a proposal to amend the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized
shares of Common Stock from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 (the "Charter
Amendment Proposal").  At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held
on May 12, 1998, the Company's stockholders approved the Conversion
Proposal and the Charter Amendment Proposal.  The Series C Preferred Stock
was converted automatically into 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock valued at
$5.125 per share and which, pursuant to the exemption provided under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"),
were not registered under the Securities Act.

     The acquisition of the BTG Division was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting.  The purchase price was allocated to
tangible assets based on fair value ($22 million of product inventory). 
The financial statements include the results of operation of the BTG
Division since the acquisition date.

     The following table sets forth the unaudited pro forma results of
operations of the Company and the BTG Division for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, assuming the acquisition occurred on January 1,
1997.  Net loss for 1998 excludes approximately $1 million of operating
cost directly attributable to the acquisition.

4.   PROPERTIES

     The Company's administrative offices are located in an approximate
190,000-square foot group of facilities in Chantilly, Virginia under a
lease expiring in November 1998.  In November 1997, the Company entered
into an agreement to build and lease a new administrative facility
consisting of approximately 100,000 square feet.  The agreement has a
10-year term with one 5-year option period and will commence on December 1,
1998.  The Company, as obligated under the agreement, provided to the
Landlord two Letters of Credit ("LOC") in the amounts of $600,000 on
December 11, 1997 and $1.4 million on April 20, 1998 as a security deposit
for all tenant-requested improvements associated with the lease.  The
deposit will be reduced by 10% per year, over the life of the lease.

     In addition to the administrative offices, the Company leases a
separate 200,000 square foot warehouse and distribution facility in
Chantilly, Virginia, under a lease expiring December 2006.  As a result of
the BTG Division acquisition, the Company also has an agreement to sublease
from BTG two warehouse and distribution facilities located in Chattanooga,
Tennessee and Fairfax, Virginia, respectively.  The Chattanooga facility's
sublease will expire in March of 1999, and the Fairfax facility's sublease
will expire in August of 1998.

     The Company also has branch sales offices located in Chicago, Illinois
and Heidelberg, Germany, which operate under multi-year leases expiring at
various times throughout 1998.

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

     The following discussion and analysis is provided to increase the
understanding of, and should be read in conjunction with, the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report,
as well as the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto incorporated into its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997.  Historical results and percentage relationships among
any amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily
indicative of trends in operating results for any future period.

Overview

     GTSI is one of the largest dedicated resellers of microcomputers and
Unix workstation hardware, software and networking products to the
Government.  The Company currently offers access to over 150,000
information technology products from more that 2,100 manufacturers.  GTSI
also performs network integration services, including configuring,
installing and maintaining microcomputers in local area networks.  The
Company sells to virtually all departments and agencies of the Government,
many state governments and several hundred systems integrators and prime
contractors that sell to the government market.  GTSI offers its customers
a convenient and cost effective centralized source of microcomputer and
workstation products through its competitive pricing, broad product
selection and procurement expertise.  The Company provides its vendors with
a low-cost marketing and distribution channel to the millions of end users
comprising the government market, while virtually insulating these vendors
from most of the complex government procurement rules and regulations.

     The Company is committed to and focused on the government customer. 
The Company's primary strategy is to focus on maximizing its presence in
the government market by competitively bidding as many contract vehicles as
possible under various government purchasing programs, maintaining and
establishing relationships with vendors which allow for a broader product
offering, and focusing on increasing customer responsiveness and service. 
The February 12, 1998 acquisition of the BTG Division provides the Company
with key government contract vehicles, especially indefinite
delivery/indefinite quantity contracts, that will continued to enhance its
presence in the Government market.

     Changes in sales throughout the Company's history have been attributed
to increased or decreased unit sales, to expansion of the Company's product
offerings, to the addition of new vendors and to the addition or expiration
of contract sales vehicles.  The Company's financial results have
fluctuated seasonally, and may continue to do so because of the of the
Government's buying patterns which have historically favorably impacted the
last two calendar quarters and adversely affected the first two calendar
quarters.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED
WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     SALES. Sales consist of revenues from product shipments and services
rendered net of allowances for customer returns and credits.  In the second
quarter of 1998, sales increased $42.4 million or 45.0% from the same
period in 1997.  The primary reasons for the increase over the same quarter
last year were the increased sales under indefinite-delivery/indefinite
quantity ("IDIQ") contracts and General Services Administration ("GSA")
Schedules sales of approximately $45.6 million and $3.4 million
respectively.  These increases were partially offset by decreased Open
Market sales of approximately $6.2 million.  The decline in Open Market
sales, in management's belief, is primarily attributable to recent changes
in the procurement regulations that allow the Government to purchase
products by other means (e.g. GSA schedule contracts, Blanket Purchase
Agreements ("BPAs") in a quicker and easier manner than was the case before
such changes.

     Sales under IDIQ contracts increased primarily as a result of sales
under the contract with the State Department, the Army's PC-2 contract and
the U.S. Treasury Department's TDA-2 contract, totaling $38.6 million.  The
Company performs under these contracts as a result of the acquisition of
the BTG Division.

     The increase in GSA Schedule sales is a result of increased BPA sales
of $11.5 million, from the same period last year.  The increase was offset
by a decrease in sales relating to GSA Schedule A and Schedule B/C
contracts of $1.7 and $7.0 million respectively, compared to the same
period last year.  (In 1996, GSA Schedule contracts expressly authorized
agencies to procure from GSA Schedule holders under BPAs, which incorporate
many terms and conditions of the GSA Schedule contracts.)

     Booked backlog at June 30, 1998, was approximately $65.0 million
compared to $31.8 million at June 30, 1997.  Booked backlog was $67.1
million at July 31, 1998, up $35.0 million, or 109.3%.  The increase in
booked backlog is primarily related to orders that were recorded as part of
the BTG Division acquisition.  Booked backlog represents orders received
but product has yet to ship.

     GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin is sales less cost of sales, which includes
product purchase cost, freight, warranty maintenance cost and certain other
overhead expenses related to the cost of acquiring products.  Gross Margin
percentages vary over time and change significantly depending on the
contract vehicle and product involved; therefore, the Company's overall
gross margin percentages are dependent on the mix and timing of products
sold and the strategic use of available contract vehicles.

     During the second quarter of 1998, gross margin increased by
approximately $5.5 million or 81.0%.  In addition, gross margin, as a
percentage increased from 7.2% to 9.0%.  The increase in gross margin was
impacted by an inventory adjustment of approximately $2.2 million resulting
from a June physical inventory valuation.  Gross margin for the first three
months of 1998 was 7.4%, factoring the impact of the inventory adjustment.

                                                                         14
In addition, the increase in gross margin was impacted by the realization
of greater price protection credits offset by increased warranty
maintenance expense. Further, gross margin earned during the second quarter
of 1997 was impacted by an $11.0 million drop shipment of product from one
of the Company's vendors directly to the customer at lower than normal
margins.  The change in gross margin percentage is not necessary indicative
of gross margin percentages to be earned in future periods.

     OPERATING EXPENSES.  Selling, general and administrative expenses for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 increased approximately $2.0 million
or 20.7%, from the same period in 1997.  The increase was due primarily to
increased personnel costs as a result of the BTG Division acquisition as
well as increases in the overall volume of the business.  Expressed as a
percentage of total sales, selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased for the three months ended June 30, 1998, to 8.0% from 9.4%. 
This decrease is reflective of the growth in sales of 45.0%, requiring less
additional infrastructure expenses as existing facilities and personnel are
utilized more effectively.

     INTEREST EXPENSE.  The approximate $359,000 increase in net interest
expense in the second quarter of 1998 was due primarily to increased
average borrowing as a result of increased sales volumes as well as
additional borrowings required for the BTG Division acquisition.

     INCOME TAXES.  No tax benefit was recognized with respect to the
Company's income from operations during the second quarter of 1998 as the
Company determined that certain net deferred tax assets did not satisfy the
recognition criteria set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109").

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED
WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     SALES.  In the first six months of 1998, sales increased $53.1 million
or 29.0% from the same period in 1997.  The primary reasons for the
increase over the same period last year were the increased sales under IDIQ
contracts of approximately $70.8 million or 128%.  The increased IDIQ
contract sales were partially offset by decreased sales under GSA Schedule
and Open Market contracts of approximately $3.9 million and $12.6 million,
respectively.  The decline in Open Market sales, in management's belief, is
primarily attributable to recent changes in the procurement regulations
that allow the Government to purchase products by other means (e.g. GSA
schedule contracts, BPAs) in a quicker and easier manner than was the case
before such changes.  In addition, the decrease in sales under GSA Schedule
contracts can be attributed primarily to decreased sales relating to the
GSA Schedule A and Schedule B/C contracts of $3.1 million and $20.2 million
respectively, from the same period last year.  This decrease was partially
offset by an increase in BPA sales of $18.4 million compared to last year.

     Sales under IDIQ contracts increased primarily as a result of sales
under the contract with the State Department, the Army's PC-2 contract and
the U.S. Treasury Department's TDA-2 contract, totaling $42.6 million.  The

Company performs under these contracts as a result of the acquisition of
the BTG Division.

     GROSS MARGIN.  In the first six months of 1998, gross margin increased
in absolute dollars by approximately $6.9 million or 49.7%, and increased
as a percentage of sales from 7.6% to 8.9% when compared to the same period
one year ago. The increase in gross margin was impacted by a one time
inventory adjustment of approximately $2.2 million resulting from a June
physical inventory valuation.  Gross margin for the first six months of
1998 was 7.9%, factoring the impact of the inventory adjustment.  In
addition, the increase in gross margin was impacted by the realization of
greater price protection credits offset by increased warranty maintenance
expense.  Further, gross margin earned during the second quarter of 1997
was impacted by an $11.0 million drop shipment of product from one of the
Company's vendors directly to the customer at lower than normal margins. 
The change in gross margin percentage is not necessary indicative of gross
margin percentages to be earned in future periods.

     OPERATING EXPENSES.  Total operating expenses in the first six months
of 1998, increased $3.5 million or 17.6%.  This increase was due primarily
to increased personnel costs as a result of the BTG Division acquisition as
well as increases in the overall volume of the business.  In addition,
during the first six months of 1998, the Company incurred approximately
$1.0 million of operating costs associated with the acquisition of the BTG
Division.  Total operating expenses, as a percentage of total sales
decreased for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from 10.8% to 9.9%.  This
decrease is reflective of the growth in sales requiring less additional
infrastructure expenses as existing facilities and personnel are utilized
more effectively.

     INTEREST EXPENSE.  The net interest expense increase of approximately
$388,000 in the second quarter of 1998 was due primarily to increased
average borrowing as a result of increased sales volumes as well as
additional borrowings required for the BTG Division acquisition

     INCOME TAXES.  No tax benefit was recognized with respect to the
Company's operating loss for the first six months of 1998 as the Company
determined that certain net deferred tax assets did not satisfy the
recognition criteria set forth in FAS 109.

SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS AND OTHER FACTORS

     The Company has historically experienced and expects to continue to
experience significant seasonal fluctuations in its operations as a result
of Government buying and funding patterns, which also impact the buying
patterns of GTSI's prime contractor customers.  These buying and funding
patterns historically have had a significant positive effect on GTSI's
bookings in the third quarter ending September 30 each year (the
Government's fiscal year end), and consequently on sales and net income in
the third and fourth quarters of each year.  Quarterly financial results
are also affected by the timing of the award of and shipments of products
under government contracts, price competition in the microcomputer and
workstation industries, the addition of personnel or other expenses in 
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
                                                                         16
anticipation of sales growth, product line changes and expansions, and the
timing and costs of changes in customer and product mix.  In addition,
customer order deferrals in anticipation of new product releases by leading
microcomputer and workstation hardware and software manufacturers, delays
in vendor shipments of new or existing products, a shift in sales mix to
more complex requirements contracts with more complex service costs, and
vendor delays in the processing of incentives and credits due GTSI, have
occurred (all of which are also likely to occur in the future) and have
adversely affected the Company's operating performance in particular
periods.  The seasonality and the unpredictability of the factors affecting
such seasonality make GTSI's quarterly and yearly financial results
difficult to predict and subject to significant fluctuation.  The Company's
stock price could be adversely affected if any such financial results fail
to meet the financial community's expectations.

     Additionally, legislation is periodically introduced in Congress that
may change the Government's procurement practices.  GTSI cannot predict
whether any legislative or any regulatory proposals will be adopted or, if
adopted, the impact upon its operating results.  Changes in the structure,
composition and/or buying patterns of the Government, either alone or in
combination with competitive conditions or other factors, could adversely
affect future results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     During the first six months of 1998, the Company's operating
activities provided $12.8 million of cash flow, compared to $14.7 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  The decrease from year to year
relates to the Company's increase in Accounts Receivable.  Accounts
Receivable increased as a result of higher sales volumes.  The increase in
Accounts Receivable was offset by decreases in Accounts Payable.

     Investing activities used cash of approximately $8.8 million during
the six months ended June 30, 1998.  The primary reason was the cash
payment in February 1998, or $7.8 million relating to the acquisition of
the BTG division.

     During the six months ended June 30, 1998, The Company's financing
activities used cash of approximately $4.7 million.  The net payments
against the Company's bank notes included $7.8 million used to finance the
cash portion of the BTG Division acquisition.  At June 30, 1998, the
Company had approximately $21.1 million available for borrowing under its
credit facility.

     On May 2, 1996, the Company executed a three-year credit facility with
a bank (the "Principal Lender") for $40.0 million and a one-year credit
facility with the Other Lenders for an additional $55.0 million
(collectively, the "Credit Facility").  Additionally, on June 27, 1996, the
Company executed a separate $10.0 million facility with the Principal
Lender for inventory financing of vendor products (the "Wholesale Financing
Facility").  Interest under the inventory financing facility is accrued at
a rate equal to prime plus 3.00% (11.25% at December 31, 1996).  On August

                                                                         17
23, 1996, the Company and its banks executed Amendment No. 1 to the Credit
Facility, which modified certain quarterly financial covenants.

     On July 28, 1997, the Company and its banks executed the Second
Amended and Restated Business Credit and Security Agreement (the "Credit
Agreement").  The agreement modified some of the terms and conditions
contained in the Credit Facility and effectively eliminated the Company's
default condition with certain 1996 year-end financial covenants. The total
amount available under the Credit Facility was reduced from a total of $95
million to $60 million, with an additional $30 million reduction during the
period February 1 through July 31 of each year.  Further, the Wholesale
Financing Facility was increased from $10 million to $20 million, with a
$10 million reduction during the period March 1 through July 31 of each
year.  Other modifications included the revision of the Credit Facility's
term to one year with a one-year automatic renewal, the addition of an
unused line fee, an increase in the interest rate accrued against
outstanding borrowings, and the modification of all financial covenants.

     At December 31, 1997, the Company was not in compliance with the
annual covenant covering Net Income and the fourth quarter covenant related
to Tangible Net Worth.  On February 3, 1998, the Company obtained waivers
from the agent for all covenant violations at December 31, 1997.  Amounts
due to the lenders as of December 31, 1997 are classified as current
liabilities and the available portion of the Credit Facility at December
31, 1997 was approximately $18.7 million.

     On February 11, 1998, the Credit Agreement was revised to, among other
things, limit the total amount available under the facility to $60 million
for an additional two months.  The total available under the facility was
reduced to $30 million only during the period April 1, 1998 to July 31,
1998.  As for the Wholesale Financing Facility, the amount available under
the agreement remained at $20 million and was to be used solely for
inventory purchases.  The amount available was reduced to $10 million only
during the period April 1, 1998 to July 31, 1998.  All other material terms
of both facilities remained the same.

     On July 2, 1998, the Company and its banks executed separate
amendments adjusting, among other things, the seasonality of the total
amount available under the Credit Facility and the Wholesale Financing
Facility, respectively, in any calendar year.  The limit of the Credit
Facility will increase to $75 million during the period October 1 through
January 31.  During the periods February 1 through April 30 and July 1
through September 30, the total amount available under the Credit Facility
will be limited to $50 million.  During the period May 1 through June 30,
the total amount available under the Credit Facility will be limited to $30
million.  In addition, the interest rate under the Credit Facility was
amended to a rate of LIBOR plus 2.45%, payable quarterly; reducing to LIBOR
plus 2.25% if, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30,
1998, the Company achieves certain quarterly financial covenants.  Prior to
execution of these amendments, the interest rate under the Credit Agreement
was LIBOR plus 2.95% (8.64% at June 30, 1998).  The limit of the Wholesale
Financing Facility will remain at $20 million during the period June 1 
<PAGE>

                                                                         18
through January 31, and decrease to $10 million during the period February
1 through May 31, of any calendar year.  All other material terms of both
facilities remained the same.

     At June 30, 1998, the Company was in compliance with all quarterly
financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Borrowing is
limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable.  The Credit Facility is
substantially secured by all of the operating assets of the Company. 
Current obligations are first funded and then all cash receipts are
automatically applied to reduce outstanding borrowings.  The Credit
Facility also contains certain covenants that include restrictions on the
payment of dividends and the repurchase of the Company's Common Stock, as
well as provisions specifying compliance with certain quarterly and annual
financial statistical ratios.

     The Company anticipates that it will continue to rely primarily on
operating cash flow, bank loans and vendor credit to finance its operating
cash needs.  The Company believes that such funds should be sufficient to
satisfy the Company's near term anticipated cash requirements for
operations.  Nonetheless, the Company may seek additional sources of
capital, including permanent financing over a longer term at fixed rates,
to finance its working capital requirements.  The Company believes that
such capital sources will be available to it on acceptable terms, if
needed.

YEAR 2000

     The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming
code in existing computer systems as the millennium ("Year 2000")
approaches.  The Year 2000 problem is complex as certain computer
operations will be affected in some way by the rollover of the two-digit
year value to 00.  The issue is whether computer systems will properly
recognize date-sensitive information when the year changes to 2000. 
Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate
erroneous data or cause a system to fail.

     The Company has conducted an inventory of its central systems for Year
2000 compliance, incurring costs to date of approximately $80,000.  The
most significant risk faced by the Company is the Just-In-Time ("JIT")
application, the Company's key enterprise operations system.  The Company
intends to eliminate this risk by replacing JIT with IMPRESA (which is Year
2000-compliant), which replacement is scheduled to be completed by April 1,
1999 at an estimated cost of approximately $2 million.  However, there can
be no assurance that any undetected potential Year 2000 problem, if
material, can be resolved by the Company in a timely or cost effective
fashion, or that any difficulty or inability in resolving such problem will
not have a material adverse effect upon the Company.

                        PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS -- 

     On October 5 1997, the Company entered into a settlement agreement
with the Department of Justice under which the Company will pay the
Government a total of $400,000 plus $22,000 in legal fees that are to be
paid in three equal installments.  Interest will accrue from the date of
settlement and will be paid over the installment period.  The agreement
resolves and releases the Company from claims relating to a GSA audit of
the Company's GSA schedule sales for the years 1988 to 1997, and settles
and dismisses with prejudice a qui tam lawsuit filed on behalf of the
Government regarding such GSA schedule sales.  The qui tam lawsuit naming
the Company was filed under seal in 1995 and was subject to a court order
prohibiting disclosure of the suit.  The qui tam action was filed by the
same individual who filed a similar suit against Novell, Inc. in 1992,
which Novell settled by paying the Government $1.7 million.

     In December 1996, the Company settled litigation pending before the
Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals related to the Company's
obligation to provide "upgrades" of certain computer software under the
Desktop IV Contract.  The settlement required the Company to provide,
without charge, certain software licenses to users who registered before
February 28, 1997.

     At December 31, 1996, the Company recorded a liability of
approximately $3.0 million, which represented management's estimate of the
costs necessary to provide the "upgrades" noted above plus estimated
professional services costs paid in 1997 related to the GSA audit.  The
balance of this reserve was approximately $800,000 as of June 30, 1998.

     The Company is occasionally a defendant in litigation incidental to
its business.  The Company believes that none of such litigation currently
pending against it, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.

                                 AMENDMENT

     THIS AMENDMENT ("Amendment") is entered into as of the 2nd day of
July, 1998 by and among Deutsche Financial Services Corporation, as Agent
and a Lender ("Agent") the other Lender signatories hereto ("Lenders") and
Government Technology Services, Inc. ("Borrower").

                                 RECITALS

     Agent, Lenders (and/or their successors by assignment, as applicable)
and Borrower are parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated
Business Credit and Security Agreement dated as of July 28, 1997 (as
amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"). Capitalized terms used
but not defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Credit
Agreement.  National Bank of Canada ("NBC"), a Lender, has delivered
written notice of its intention not to renew its Commitment for the
one-year renewal period which would commence on July 28, 1998. In
connection with: (i) such termination by NBC, (ii) the purchase by Fleet
Capital Corporation ("Fleet") of a Commitment in the Total Credit, as
described more fully herein, and (iii) certain other amendments to the
Credit Agreement, as described more fully herein; Borrower, Fleet, Lenders
and Agent now desire to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement on
and subject to the terms hereof.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the forgoing premises and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

     1.  Amendment Effective Date; Settlement.

          (i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this
Amendment shall only become effective (the "Amendment Effective Date") when
(a) the Borrower, the Agent, each Lender and Fleet shall have signed a
counterpart hereof (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall
have delivered (including by way of facsimile  transmissions) the same to
Agent at its address indicated in the Credit Agreement, and (b) Fleet shall
have delivered to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, an amount equal
to Fleet's relevant Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the
outstanding Loans and any accrued and unpaid interest under the Credit
Agreement.

          (ii) Upon such acceptance and recording by the Agent, and payment
of the amounts described above, from and after the Amendment Effective
Date, the Agent shall make all payments under the Credit Agreement in
respect of Fleet's interest acquired hereby (including, without limitation,
all payments or principal, interest and fees (if applicable) with respect
thereto) to Fleet as a Lender.

     2.  NBC. As of the Amendment Effective Date, NBC shall no longer be a
Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent and
NBC shall have, on or prior to the Amendment Effective Date, settled all
balances and other issues necessary towards elimination of NBC's Commitment
and other related matters.

     3.  Fleet.

          (i) As of the Amendment Effective Date, Fleet shall be and become
a Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in the
amount and on such terms as set forth herein and therein.  Fleet hereby:
(a) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements
referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter
into this Amendment and to become a Lender; (b) agrees that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent, or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
action under the Credit Agreement; (c) appoints and authorizes the Agent to
take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under
the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the
Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto; and (d) agrees that it will perform in accordance with
their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it
as a Lender.

          (ii)  Neither Agent or any Lender makes any representation or
warranty to Fleet and assumes no responsibility with respect to the
financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the
Borrower of any of its obligations under the Credit Agreement or any other
Loan Document.

          (iii)  Fleet's address for notice purposes under the Credit
Agreement shall be as follows:

          Address: 6060 J.A. Jones Drive
                   Suite 200
                   Charlotte, NC  28287
          Attn:    Sharon Garner
          Fax No.: (704) 553-6738

          Fleet's wiring instructions are as follows:

          Reference:          GTSI

     4.  Commitments; Pro Rata Shares. Upon the Amendment Effective Date,
each Lender and Fleet agrees and confirms that its Commitment under the
Credit Agreement shall be as set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto and
incorporated herein, which Exhibit A shall also amend the Credit Agreement
regarding the subject matter thereof.  Each Lender and Fleet hereby agrees
that upon the Amendment Effective Date, its Commitment and corresponding
Pro Rata Share shall be determined in accordance with Exhibit A hereto.

     5. Amendments to Credit Agreement. Upon the Amendment Effective Date,
the Credit Agreement shall be amended as follows:

     (i)  "Seasonal Reduction Period".  The term "Seasonal Reduction
Period" is hereby deleted from Section 2 of the Credit Agreement and each
and every reference to such term therein and in any other Loan Document, is
also deleted in its entirety.

     (ii)  Seasonal Periods.  The following new defined terms are hereby
inserted into Section 2 of the Credit Agreement:

     "'First Seasonal Period' shall mean the period from February 1 through
     April 30 in any calendar year.

     'Second Seasonal Period' shall mean the period from May 1 through June
     30 in any calendar year.

     'Third Seasonal Period' shall mean the period from July 1 through
     September 30 in any calendar year.

     'Fourth Seasonal Period' shall mean the period from October 1 in any
     calendar year through January 31 in the immediately succeeding
     calendar year."

     (iii)  Majority Lenders. The definition of "Majority Lenders" in
Section 2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following:

     "'Majority Lenders' shall mean, at any date of determination thereof,
     Lenders having Commitments representing at least 51% of the aggregate
     Commitments at such time: provided, however, that if any Lender shall
     be in breach of any of its obligations hereunder to Borrower or Agent,
     including any breach resulting from its failure to honor its
     Commitment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then, for
     so long as such breach continues, the term 'Majority Lenders' shall
     mean Lenders (excluding each Lender that is in breach of its
     obligations hereunder) having Commitments representing at least 51% of
     the aggregate Commitments at such time."

     (iv)  Credit Facility. The introductory paragraph to Section 3 of the
Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:

          "3.  CREDIT FACILITY.  In consideration of Borrower's payment and
     performance of its Obligations and subject to the terms and conditions
     contained in this Agreement, the Lenders agree to provide, and
     Borrower agrees to accept, an aggregate credit facility of up to:

               (i) Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) during the First
     Seasonal Period;

               (ii) Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) during the Second
     Seasonal Period;

               (iii) Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) during the Third
     Seasonal Period; and

               (iv) Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) during the
     Fourth Seasonal Period;

     (collectively, the 'Total Credit'), on and subject to the terms hereof
     (the 'Credit Facility')."

     (v)  Borrowing Base. Section 3.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          "3.2 Borrowing Base.  On receipt of each Borrowing Base
     Certificate in form and substance acceptable to Agent, which shall be
     delivered with each Notice of Borrowing and at least weekly (the
     'Borrowing Base Certificate'), Agent will credit Borrower with eighty
     percent (80%) of the net amount of the Eligible Accounts which are,
     absent error or other discrepancy, listed in such Borrowing Base
     Certificate minus the face amount of all letters of credit issued or
     guaranteed by an LC Guarantying Lender, minus any reserves established
     pursuant to Section 3.12 hereof (the 'Borrowing Base').  For purposes
     hereof, the net amount of Eligible Accounts at any time shall be the
     face amount of such Eligible Accounts less any and all returns,
     discounts (which may, at Agent's option, be calculated on shortest
     terms), credits, rebates, allowances, or excise taxes of any nature at
     any time issued, owing claimed by Account Debtors, granted,
     outstanding, or payable in connection with such Accounts at such
     time."

     (vi)  Interest; Calculation. Section 3.3(a) of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

               "(a)  Interest Calculation.  Borrower will pay interest on
     the Daily Contract Balance (as defined below) at a rate equal to the
     LIBOR Rate (Reserve Adjusted) plus two and forty-five one-hundredths
     percent (2.45%) per annum.  Commencing with the fiscal quarter of
     Borrower ending September 30, 1998 and each quarter thereafter, if
     Borrower's financial statements delivered to Agent pursuant to Section
     3.11(e)(i) hereof or Borrower's 10Q Reports in the form delivered to
     the Securities Exchange Commission, as applicable, for such quarter
     indicate Borrower's achievement of all of its financial covenants as
     set forth in Section 9.3 hereof, then from and after delivery of such
     financial statements showing achievement of such amounts and provided
     Borrower is not in Default hereunder, the rate of interest described
     above will be reduced to (or maintained at, as applicable), the LIBOR
     Rate (Reserve Adjusted) plus two and twenty-five one-hundredths
     percent (2.25%) per annum.  If, however, such financial statements
     indicate Borrower has failed to achieve all of the financial covenants
     set forth in Section 9.3 for such quarter, the rate of interest
     described above will be increased to (or maintained at, as
     applicable), the LIBOR Rate (Reserve Adjusted) plus two and forty-five
     one-hundredths percent (2.45%) per annum.  Such interest will: (i) be
     computed based on a 360 day year; (ii) be calculated with respect to
     each day by multiplying the Daily Rate (as defined below) by the Daily
     Contract Balance; and (iii) accrue from the date Agent authorizes any
     Electronic Transfer (as defined in Section 3.3(b) below) or otherwise
     advances a Loan to or for the benefit of Borrower, until Agent
     receives full payment of the Obligations Borrower owes the Lenders in
     good funds and Agent applies such payment to Borrower's principal debt
     in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The 'Daily Rate' is
     the quotient of the applicable annual rate provided herein divided by
     360.  The 'Daily Contract Balance' is the amount of outstanding
     principal debt which Borrower owes Lenders on the Loans at the end of
     each day (including the amount of all Electronic Transfers authorized)
     after Agent has credited payments which it has received on the Loans."

     (vii)  Administration Fee. Section 3.4(b) of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          "(b)  Administration Fee.  Borrower agrees to pay DFS, for DFS'
     own account, for its services in acting as Agent hereunder, an annual
     administration fee (the 'Administration Fee') in an amount equal to
     Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000).  The Administration Fee shall
     be payable monthly, in arrears, in equal installments of $6,250, and
     due pursuant to the applicable billing statement. Absent manifest
     error, once received by DFS, no Administration Fee shall be refundable
     by DFS for any reason, including early termination of this Agreement."

     (viii)  Unused Line Fee. Section 3.4(e) of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          "(e)  Unused Line Fee.  To the extent the unused amount of the
     Credit Facility exceeds thirty-three percent (33%) of the Total
     Credit, Borrower agrees to pay Agent for the account of all Lenders an
     unused line fee of three-hundred twenty-five one thousandths of one
     percent (.325%) per annum on the daily average of the unused amount of
     the Total Credit during the term of this Agreement and any renewal
     term.  Such unused line fee shall be payable monthly in arrears and
     due pursuant to the applicable billing statement.  Such unused amount
     of the Credit Facility in any month shall mean the difference between
     the Total Credit and the average Daily Contract Balance during such
     month."

     (ix)  Letter of Credit Guarantees. Section 3.17(a) of the Credit
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:

          "(a)  If requested to do so by Borrower, any Lender may, in its
     sole discretion, for its own account, upon prior written notice to
     Agent, execute a guaranty by which such Lender shall guaranty the
     payment or performance by Borrower of its reimbursement obligation
     with respect to letters of credit issued for Borrower's account by
     another Person (such Lender being referred to as an 'LC Guarantying
     Lender'); provided, however, that in no event shall any Lender be
     obligated to guarantee any such letter of credit if: (i) Borrower's
     obligations in respect of all such letters of credit then outstanding
     in the aggregate exceed $5,000,000, or (ii) if the expiry date of any
     such letter of credit shall or may under any circumstances occur on or
     after the last day of the then-current term of this Agreement.
     Borrower shall be absolutely and unconditionally liable to reimburse
     such LC Guarantying Lender on demand for any liability such LC
     Guarantying Lender may incur in connection with the issuance of any
     such letters of credit or guarantees, and Borrower assumes all risks
     in connection therewith.  Borrower's obligation to reimburse any LC
     Guarantying Lender hereunder may, at such LC Guarantying Lender's
     option upon prior written notice to Agent, be funded by the making of
     a Loan with the proceeds disbursed solely to such LC Guarantying
     Lender, and in any case shall remain an Obligation of Borrower,
     secured by the Collateral.  All documentation pursuant to which such
     transactions are consummated shall be delivered to Agent and shall be
     deemed Loan Documents hereunder."

     (x)  Collection Days. Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          "5.5 Collection Days. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
     contrary: (a) all cash, checks, instruments and other items of
     payment, solely for purposes of determining the occurrence of a
     Default or whether there is availability for any Loans, shall be
     applied against the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt thereof
     by Agent (if prior to 12:00 noon Eastern Standard Time); and (b)
     solely for purposes of interest calculation hereunder, all amounts
     received by Agent prior to 12:00 noon Eastern Standard Time will be
     credited by Agent to Borrower's account one (1) Business Day after
     Agent's receipt of notification from Borrower that good funds have
     been deposited into the collection account established hereunder."

     (xi)  Capital Expenditures. Section 9.2.9 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          "9.2.9  Capital Expenditures.  Borrower will not make, or commit
     to make, any expenditure for capital improvements (including, without
     limitation, capitalized leases) or the acquisition of capital goods in
     excess of: (a) for the calendar year ending December 31, 1998, Six
     Million Dollars ($6,000,000), and (b) for each calendar year
     thereafter, One Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,700,000)."

     (xii)  Financial Covenants. Section 9.3.1 of the Credit Agreement is

     Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00)."

     (xiii)  Successor Agent. Section 13.8 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

          "13.8  Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance
     of a successor Agent as provided below, Agent may resign at any time
     by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to each Lender and
     Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders, after
     prior consultation with (but without having to obtain consent of) each
     Lender, shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall
     be (i) a Lender, (ii) a United States based affiliate of a Lender, or
     (iii) a commercial bank that is organized under the laws of the United
     States or of any State thereof which has a combined capital surplus of
     at least $100,000,000 (or any asset based lending affiliate of any
     such bank) and is reasonably acceptable to Borrower (and for purposes
     hereof, any successor to DFS shall be deemed acceptable to Borrower);
     provided, however, if there exists a Default or any event which, but
     for the passage of time or notice, or both, would be a Default, then
     there shall be no such obligation to seek or obtain Borrower's
     acceptance.  Upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of an
     appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall
     thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
     privileges and duties of the retiring Agent without further act, deed
     or conveyance, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its
     duties and obligations hereunder.  After any retiring Agent's
     resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 13
     (including the provisions of Section 13.5 hereof) shall continue in
     effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to
     be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.  Notwithstanding anything
     to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any successor by merger
     or acquisition of the stock or assets of DFS shall continue to be
     Agent hereunder unless such successor shall resign in accordance with
     the provisions hereof."

     (xiv)  Assignments. Sections 14.17 (a) and (b) of the Credit Agreement
are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:

          "(a)  Assignments.  Each Lender shall have the right, subject to
     the further provisions of this Section 14.17, to sell, assign, or
     negotiate all or any part of its interest in the Credit Facility,
     Loans, and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and
     related documents (such transfer, an 'Assignment') to any commercial
     lender, other financial institution or other entity acceptable to
     Agent and, provided no Default exists or there exists no event which,
     but for the passage of time or notice, or both, would be a Default,
     Borrower (which consent of Borrower shall not be unreasonably
     withheld) (an 'Assignee').  Upon such Assignment becoming effective as
     provided in Section 14.17(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved
     from the portion of the Credit Facility, obligations to indemnify the
     Agent and other obligations hereunder to the extent assumed and
     undertaken by the Assignee, and to such extent the Assignee shall have
     the rights and obligations of a 'Lender' hereunder.  Notwithstanding
     the foregoing, unless otherwise consented to by Agent, (i) each
     Assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of
     the assigning Lender's interest in the Credit Facility, (ii) each
     Assignment shall be in a principal amount of not less than $9,500,000
     in the aggregate for all Loans and interest in the Credit Facility
     assigned unless the Assignee shall, prior to such Assignment, already
     be a Lender or an Assignee having an original interest in the Credit
     Facility in excess of $9,500,000, (iii) such Assignee shall pay to
     DFS, for DFS' own account, an administration and processing fee of
     $10,000, and (iv) each Assignment shall be documented by an agreement
     between the assigning Lender and the Assignee in a form acceptable to
     Agent (an 'Assignment and Assumption Agreement').

          (b)  Effectiveness of Assignments.  An Assignment shall become 
     effective hereunder when all of the following shall have occurred: 
     (i) any consents to such Assignment which may have been required as
     provided in Section 14.17(a) above have been obtained, unless the
     Assignee is already a Lender under this Agreement, (ii) the Assignee
     shall have submitted the relevant Assignment and Assumption Agreement,
     or other document in which the Assignee shall have agreed in writing,
     among other things, to have irrevocably assumed and undertaken the
     transferred portion of the assigning Lender's obligations hereunder
     (including without limitation the obligations to indemnify the Agent
     hereunder and to comply with Section 14.29), to the Agent with a copy
     for the Borrower, and shall have provided to the Agent information the
     Agent shall have reasonably requested to make payments to the
     Assignee, and (iii) the assigning Lender and the Agent shall have
     agreed upon a date upon which the Assignment shall become effective. 
     Upon the Assignment becoming effective, the Agent shall forward all
     payments of interest, principal, fees and other amounts that would
     have been made to the assigning Lender, in proportion to the
     percentage of the assigning Lender's rights transferred, to the
     Assignee."

     (xv)  Section 3.11(e)(vii). Section 3.11(e)(vii) of the Credit
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:

     "(vii)  The President or Chief Financial Officer of Borrower will
     certify to Agent within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter,
     or more often if reasonably requested by Agent, that to the best of
     his knowledge, after reasonable inquiry, Borrower is in compliance
     with the Financial Covenants as set forth in Section 9.3 hereof, in a
     form acceptable to Agent in its sole discretion;"

     (xvi)  Ineligible Accounts Amendment. Subsection "(m)" in the
definition of "Ineligible Accounts" in Section 2 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety.

     (xvii)  Obligations Amendment. The definition of "Obligations" in
Section 2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following new definition:

     "'Obligations' shall mean all liabilities and indebtedness of any kind
     and nature whatsoever now or hereafter arising, owing, due or payable
     from Borrower (and/or any of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates) to the
     Lenders, whether primary or secondary, joint or several, direct,
     contingent, fixed or otherwise, secured or unsecured, or whether
     arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document now or
     hereafter executed by Borrower (or any of its Subsidiaries or
     Affiliates).  Obligations will include, without limitation, any third
     party claims against Borrower (or any of its Subsidiaries or
     Affiliates) satisfied or acquired by the Agent or a Lender. 
     Obligations will also include all obligations of Borrower to pay:  (a)
     any and all sums reasonably advanced by the Agent or a Lender to
     preserve or protect the Collateral or the value of the Collateral or
     to preserve, protect, or perfect Agent's security interests in the
     Collateral; (b) in the event of any proceeding to enforce the
     collection of the Obligations after a Default, the reasonable expenses
     of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling or otherwise
     disposing of or realizing on the Collateral, or expenses of any
     exercise by Agent or the Lenders of their rights, together with
     reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses of collection and court costs, as
     provided in the Loan Documents; and (c) any other indebtedness or
     liability of Borrower to the Agent or a Lender arising under this
     Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether direct or indirect,
     absolute or contingent, now or hereafter arising."


     6.  No Claims.  Borrower acknowledges that there are no existing
claims, defenses (personal or otherwise) or rights of setoff or recoupment
whatsoever with respect to any of the Loan Documents.  Borrower agrees that
this Amendment in no way acts as a release or relinquishment of any Liens
or other rights in favor of  Agent or any Lender.

     7.  Miscellaneous.   Except to the extent specifically amended herein,
all terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents are hereby ratified and reaffirmed and shall remain in full force
and effect.  Borrower waives notice of Agent's and each Lender's acceptance
of this Amendment.  Agent and each Lender reserves all of their respective
rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment as
of the date first written above.

                               Exhibit 10.42

              AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR WHOLESALE FINANCING

     This Amendment to Agreement for Wholesale Financing is made to that
certain Agreement for Wholesale Financing entered into by and between
Government Technology Services, Inc. ("Dealer") and Deutsche Financial
Services Corporation ("DFS") as of June 27, 1996, as amended ("Agreement").

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Dealer and DFS agree to amend the Agreement as
follows:

     1.   Dealer hereby confirms its understanding of the discretionary
nature of its credit facility established pursuant to the terms of the
Agreement.  The foregoing notwithstanding, DFS hereby confirms that it has
established a facility available for Dealer's inventory purchases under the
terms of the Agreement in the amount of $20,000,000, which such amount
shall be reduced to $10,000,000 for the period commencing on February 1 and
ending on May 31 in any calendar year.  DFS is not permitted to increase
either of the foregoing facility amounts without the prior written consent
of a majority, by number, of the "Lenders" (as that terms is defined in the
Credit Agreement), excluding DFS as a Lender for purposes of such
calculation.

     2.   The following paragraph shall be inserted into the Agreement as
if fully and originally set forth therein and shall replace in their
entirety any previous provisions concerning the subject matter hereof:

     "Unused Line Fee.  To the extent the unused amount of Dealer's
     facility under this Agreement exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the
     maximum facility available to Dealer hereunder, Dealer agrees to pay
     DFS an unused line fee of three-hundred twenty-five one thousandths of
     one percent (.325%) per annum on the daily average of the unused
     amount of the Dealer's facility under this Agreement.  Said fee shall
     be determined monthly based upon an average of the status of the
     facility measured once per week in such month. The facility shall be
     considered utilized to the extent of advances actually made by DFS in
     respect of an invoice and open approvals, which are defined as amounts
     approved by DFS under this facility, but which, for any reason, remain
     unfunded by DFS for a period not to exceed 30 days from the date of
     such open approval. Such unused line fee shall be payable monthly in
     arrears and due pursuant to the applicable billing statement."

     3.  The following paragraph shall be incorporated into the Agreement
as if fully and originally set forth therein and shall replace in their
entirety any previous provisions concerning the subject matter hereof:

     "Financial Covenants. Dealer agrees that it will: 

     (a)  at all times maintain a Tangible Net Worth plus Subordinated Debt
     in the combined amount of not less than the amount shown below for the
     period corresponding thereto:

               Period                                Amount
          ----------------------------------------------------

          Calendar quarter ending 3/31/98         $38,000,000

          Calendar quarter ending 6/30/98         $40,000,000

          Calendar quarter ending 9/30/98         $45,000,000

          Calendar quarter ending 12/31/98
           and each calendar quarter thereafter   $47,000,000;


     (b) at all times maintain a ratio of Debt minus Subordinated Debt to
     Tangible Net Worth plus Subordinated Debt of not more than the amount
     shown below for the period corresponding thereto:

               Period                                Ratio
          ----------------------------------------------------

          Calendar quarter ending 3/31/98         4.0 to 1.0

          Calendar quarter ending 6/30/98         3.0 to 1.0

          Calendar quarter ending 9/30/98         5.0 to 1.0

          Calendar quarter ending 12/31/98
           and each calendar quarter thereafter   3.5 to 1.0;

     (c) at all times maintain a ratio of Current Assets to current
     liabilities of not less than the amount shown below for the period
     corresponding thereto:

               Period                                Ratio
          ----------------------------------------------------

          Calendar quarter ending 3/31/98         1.2 to 1.0

          Calendar quarter ending 6/30/98         1.2 to 1.0

          Calendar quarter ending 9/30/98         1.1 to 1.0

          Calendar quarter ending 12/31/98
           and each calendar quarter thereafter   1.2 to 1.0

     (d) for the fiscal year of Dealer ending December 31, 1998, and each
     and every fiscal year thereafter, Dealer shall achieve net income, 
     before giving effect to provisions for income taxes, of at least Two
     Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00).

For purposes of this paragraph:  (i) 'Tangible Net Worth' means the book
value of Dealer's assets less liabilities (including as liabilities all 
recorded reserves for contingencies and other potential liabilities),
excluding from such assets all Intangibles; (ii) 'Intangibles' means and
includes general intangibles (as that term is defined in the UCC); accounts
receivable and advances due from officers, directors, member, owner,
employees, stockholders and affiliates; leasehold improvements net of
depreciation; licenses; good will; prepaid expenses (except for those
determined by DFS, in its sole discretion, not to be Intangible); escrow
deposits (except for those determined by DFS, in its sole discretion, not
to be Intangible); covenants not to compete; the excess of cost over book
value of acquired assets; franchise fees; organizational costs; finance
reserves held for recourse obligations; capitalized research and
development costs; and such other similar items as DFS may from time to
time determine in DFS' sole discretion; (iii) 'Debt' means all of Dealer's
liabilities and indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind and nature
whatsoever other than Subordinated Debt (as defined below), whether direct
or indirect, absolute or contingent, and including obligations under
capitalized leases, guaranties or with respect to which Dealer has pledged
assets to secure performance, whether or not direct recourse liability has
been assumed by Dealer; (iv) 'Subordinated Debt' means all of Dealer's Debt
which is subordinated to the payment of Dealer's liabilities to DFS by an
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to DFS; and (v) 'Current
Assets' means Dealer's current assets.   The foregoing terms will be
determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and, if
applicable, on a consolidated basis."

     All other terms as they appear in the Agreement, to the extent
consistent with the foregoing, are ratified and remain unchanged and in
full force and effect.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Dealer and DFS have executed this Amendment to
Agreement for Wholesale Financing this 2nd day of July, 1998.
