1.  Basis of Presentation:

    The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and with
the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim
financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
consolidated financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included.  The operating results for the three
month and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996.  For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related
notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1995.


2.  Net Income Per Share:

    Net income per share was computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares and equivalents outstanding during the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1996, as well as the similar periods ended June 30, 1995.
Primary and fully diluted net income per share are approximately the same.  The
number of shares used in the calculations for these periods was 11,791,000,
11,621,000, 11,272,000 and 11,208,000 respectively.  The Company has granted
certain stock options which have been treated as common share equivalents in
computing net income per share.

                       Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                    Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW:

Net income for the Company increased 50% to $1,625,000 or $0.14 per share on net
revenues of $14,203,000 for the second quarter ended June 30, 1996 as compared
to net income of $1,080,000 or $0.10 per share on net revenues of $9,893,000 for
the corresponding quarter of the prior year.  For the six month period ended
June 30, 1996 the Company's net income decreased 10% to $2,150,000 or $0.19 per
share on net revenues of $25,385,000 as compared to $2,395,000 or $0.21 per
share on net revenues of $20,196,000 for the six month period ended June 30,
1995.

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION:

This Quarterly Report on Form 10Q contains certain forward looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ
from those projected.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Net revenues for the second quarter and six month period ended June 30, 1996
were $14,203,000 and $25,385,000, respectively.  This constituted a $4,310,000
or 44% increase for the second quarter over second quarter 1995, and a
$5,189,000 or 26% increase for the six month period over the same six month
period of the prior year.  The revenues for both periods increased as a result
of increased sales of software licenses, support services and business forms.
Software license revenues from the Company's Acuity Financials, MAS 90 for
Windows, MAS 90 EVOLUTION/2  and Business Works product lines increased
$4,015,000 or 52% for the second quarter as compared to the same quarter of the
previous year and $4,709,000 or 30% for the six month period over the same six
month period of 1995.  This increase was primarily due to the introduction of
the Company's MAS 90 for Windows product line in June 1996.  MAS 90 for Windows
revenue for the second quarter of 1996 was $4,864,000.  The majority of this
revenue increase was the result of the purchase of demonstration reference
libraries by resellers and upgrades to the existing MAS 90 DOS installed
customer base.  Revenues from the Company's Apple products of FlexWare and
MacP&L declined $44,000 or 17% for the second quarter as compared to the second
quarter of the previous year and $109,000 or 23% for the six month period over
the same six month period of 1995.  The Company sold the Apple product lines of
FlexWare and MacP&L in the second quarter of 1996.

                                                                     FORM 10-Q

Software license revenues from the Company's MAS 90 product line increased
approximately $3,954,000 or 64% in the second quarter over second quarter 1995
and accounted for 71% of the Company's total revenues for the quarter as
compared to 62% of the Company's total revenues in the same quarter of the
previous year.  For the six month period, MAS 90 license revenues increased
$4,520,000 or 36% over the same six month period of the prior year and accounted
for 67% of the total Company's revenues for the six month period, as compared to
62% of the total Company's revenues for the same six month period in the prior
year.  These increases were principally due to the release of the MAS 90 for
Windows product in June 1996.  Business Works software license revenues
decreased 6% or $100,000 for the quarter as compared to the second quarter of
1995, and increased 1% or $29,000 for the six month period over the comparable
six month period in the prior year.  The Company attributes the decline in the
Business Works revenue in the second quarter of 1996 to reduced upgrade sales.
The Company had a major enhancement to the product in the second quarter of 1995
and there was no similar enhancement in the current quarter.

The Company's support services experienced revenue gains of 30% or $301,000 in
the second quarter and 22% or $441,000 for the six month period as compared to
similar periods of the prior year.  Business forms revenue grew 4% or $38,000 in
the second quarter and 8% or $148,000 for the six month period as compared to
the same periods of the prior year.

Quarterly revenues can fluctuate significantly when compared to similar periods
of the prior year due to the timing of product introductions, enhancements,
upgrades, commencement of sales and marketing promotions and general economic
conditions.  As a result, one quarter's performance as compared to a comparable
period in the prior year is not necessarily indicative of the Company's expected
performance in subsequent quarters or the year.  For example, revenues for the
second quarter of 1996 increased as a result of the release in that quarter of
the MAS 90 for Windows product.  Future revenue increases from sales of this new
product line to new customers and the existing installed end-user base depends
on a number of factors which are uncertain at this time, and could possibly
result in lower revenues in future periods if the product does not achieve
market acceptance.

Furthermore, the Company operates with minimal backlog because orders are
generally shipped on an immediate basis.  As a result, the Company's quarterly
revenues and operating results are difficult to forecast since they are
dependent upon the volume and timing of orders received during any period.
Historically, the revenue volume for the first, second and third quarters of the
year have been lower than the fourth quarter.  The historically higher revenue
volume in the fourth quarter has been largely due to two factors: higher end-
user demand for the Company's software products and the release of the Company's
annual payroll tax update program.  Management believes this pattern will
continue into the fourth quarter of 1996.

                                                                     FORM 10-Q

Cost of revenues in the second quarter of 1996 was 19% as a percentage of
revenue, in comparison to 24% in the second quarter of the prior year.  For the
six month period ended June 30, 1996, cost of revenues was 20% as a percentage
of revenue, as compared to 23% for the same period of the prior year.  The
decrease in cost of revenues is primarily due to the  higher prices for the MAS
90 for Windows products.  The Company continues to pursue cost reduction
opportunities whenever practicable, however there can be no assurance that it
will be able to maintain its current level of cost of revenues when expressed as
a percentage of revenues for the remainder of 1996.

Operating expenses, when expressed as a percentage of net revenues, for the
second quarter increased four percentage points to 66% as compared to 62% for
the second quarter of the prior year, and increased eight percentage points to
70% for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 in comparison to the same
period of the prior year.  Total operating expense for the second quarter and
six month period ended June 30, 1996 increased 51% or $3,160,000 and 43% or
$5,325,000, respectively, over comparable periods of the prior year.  The
increase in operating expenses as compared with the comparable periods of the
prior year consisted of sales and marketing expense increases of 40% or
$1,441,000 for the quarter and 31% or $2,250,000 for the six month period;
research and development expense increases of 98% or $1,551,000 for the quarter
and 85% or $2,722,000 for the six month period; and general and administrative
expense increases of 18% or $168,000 for the quarter and 17% or $353,000 for the
six month period.

The increase in sales and marketing expenses can be attributed to higher
headcount and personnel related costs in addition to increased direct marketing
and advertising costs as a result of the Company's release of two new major
product lines, MAS 90 for Windows and Acuity Financials, both of which began to
ship in the second quarter of 1996.  The increase in research and development
expenses can be attributed to higher headcount and personnel related costs as a
result of the Company's release of the two new major product lines noted above.
The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily the result of
increased costs related to amortization and depreciation as a result of the
Company's capital expenditures in the areas of computer, telephone and
management information systems.

The Company continues to project a trend toward higher personnel and related
costs in future quarters.  The Company's introduction of  MAS 90 for Windows and
Acuity Financials product lines will result in additional expenditures in future
quarters in the areas of product support, sales and marketing and research and
development.  If the Company is not able to increase its revenue over the second
quarter 1996 level, the projected increase in expenditures could result in lower
profitability.

Interest income for the second quarter of 1996 increased $39,000 or 13% to
$345,000 or 2% of net revenues as compared to $306,000 or 3% of net revenues in
the second quarter of 1995 primarily due to higher cash balances.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

Working capital at June 30, 1996, totaled $38.0 million, an increase of $2.1
million or 6% as compared to $35.9 million as of December 31, 1995.

On February 22, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement whereby it may
borrow, on a revolving credit line basis, up to $10,000,000.  The revolving line
is unsecured.  The Company has the option to pay interest on the revolving
credit line at the bank's prime interest rate, or LIBO rate plus 1.5 percent.
The agreement requires the Company to maintain certain compensating balances and
has certain restrictive covenants.  The agreement expires March 15, 1997.  As of
June 30, 1996, there are no outstanding balances on this revolving credit line.

The Company has historically funded its operations primarily through positive
cash flows from operations.  The Company believes that funds generated from
operations and existing cash balances and the available bank credit lines will
be sufficient to finance the Company's operations for at least the next twelve
months.
