     Re:  Validity of Common Stock

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We are rendering this opinion in connection with the registration,
pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration
Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), of 1,000,000 shares of common stock (the "Common Stock") of Precision
Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), pursuant to the
Company's Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the "Plan").

     In connection with the preparation of this opinion, we have examined
the minute books and stock records as presented to us by the Company, the
Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Restated By-Laws of the Company, the
Registration Statement, copies of resolutions duly adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Company relating to the authorization and proposed issuance of
the Common Stock, and certain documents relating to the Plan.  In addition, we
have reviewed such other documents and instruments and have conferred with
various officers and directors of the Company and have ascertained or verified
to our satisfaction such additional facts with respect to the Company as we
have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this  opinion.

     We have assumed for purposes of this opinion that all applicable laws,
rules and regulations in effect at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock
under the Plan will be the same as such laws, rules and regulations in effect
as of the date hereof.

        Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, subject to the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement and compliance with applicable
state securities laws, the Common Stock, when issued and, in the case of
options granted pursuant to the Plan, paid for pursuant to the terms of the
Plan, will constitute duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of common stock of the Company.

        We hereby consent to all references to our firm in the Registration
Statement and to the filing of this opinion by the Company as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement.  This consent is not to be construed as an
admission that we are a person whose consent is required to be filed with the
Registration Statement under the Securities Act.

                                        Very truly yours,


                                        /s/ Baker & McKenzie
