        Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                           April 30, 1997
                             (unaudited)


1.   Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. 
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of operations have been included.


2.   Note Receivable From Affiliate

     On April 18, 1995, the Company loaned $1.8 million to Daystar
Digital, Inc. pursuant to a note receivable (the "Note").  Under the
terms of the agreement, the Note was payable one year from the date of
the agreement.  The Note bore interest payable monthly at a rate of
prime plus 1/2 percent, adjusted quarterly, and was renewable at the
end of one year.  The interest rate on the date of the agreement was 9
1/2%.  The Company renewed the original agreement with Daystar
Digital, Inc. for an additional term ending June 30, 1997.  Under the
terms of the renewal, the Note bears interest payable monthly at a
rate of prime plus 1-1/2 percent, adjusted quarterly. The Note is
guaranteed by Intelligent Systems Corporation and is secured by
154,904 shares of the Company's common stock and certificates of
deposit totalling $1,364,137 owned by Intelligent Systems Corporation.

3.   Earnings Per Share
     
     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which is required to be adopted
for the Company's fourth quarter ending January 31, 1998.  At that
time the Company will be required to change the method currently used
to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods
presented.  Under Statement No. 128, the Company is required to
present both "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share for each period
presented.  Under the new requirements for calculating basic earnings
per share, the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded.  The
following table sets forth the pro forma results had earnings per
share been calculated under Statement No. 128 for the three months
ended April 30, 1997 and 1996:

                                               Three months ended

current year presentation in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's working capital increased $376,000 to $17,655,000
as of April 30, 1997 from $17,279,000 as of January 31, 1997.  This
increase was due primarily to increases in working capital provided
from operations partially offset by additions to capitalized software
development cost of $227,000 and property and equipment additions of
$181,000.
  
     The Company believes that the current cash, cash equivalents and
cash flow from operations will be sufficient to provide the liquidity
and capital resources to meet its lease obligations and to finance
operating needs, research and development activities and planned
growth for at least the next twelve months.

Results of Operations

Revenues

      Revenues were $5,981,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997
and $5,907,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1996, an increase of
$74,000 or 1%. License fees were $3,803,000 for the quarter ended
April 30, 1997 and $4,108,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1996, a
decrease of $305,000 or 7%.

     Service fees were $2,179,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997
compared to $1,798,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1996, an
increase of $381,000 or 21%.  Service fees increased principally as a
result of increases in training and consulting revenues.

Cost of License Fees

     Cost of license fees includes the amortization of capitalized
software development costs, royalties related to licensed products and
the costs of magnetic media, packaging and documentation.  Cost of
license fees was $268,000 or 4% of revenues for the quarter ended
April 30, 1997.  For the comparable quarter of the prior year, cost of
license fees was $283,000 or 5% of revenues. The decrease in cost of
license fees in dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the quarter
ended April 30, 1997 is due primarily to decreases in amortization of
capitalized software development. Amortization of capitalized software
development costs was  $195,000 and $230,000 for the quarters ended
April 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Cost of Service Fees

     Cost of service fees consists of the costs associated with
supplying customers with technical assistance and training and
consulting services. Cost of service fees was $782,000 or 13% of
revenues 

<PAGE>
for the quarter ended April 30, 1997.  Cost of service fees was
$752,000 or 13% of revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 1996.  The
increase in cost of service fees in dollars is due principally to
increases in the Company's training and consulting staff.  The Company
expects costs of service fees to continue to increase in dollars in
conjunction with the increases in the Company's service fee revenues.

Development Expenses

     Development expenses were $518,000 or 9% of revenues for the
quarter ended April 30, 1997 and $498,000 or 8% of revenues for the
quarter ended April 30, 1996. The increase in development expenses in
dollars and as a percentage of revenue is due principally to the
addition of personnel needed for modifying, porting and enhancing all
the Company's products and for developing new products and decreased
capitalization of software development costs. The Company capitalized
$227,000 and $244,000 of development expenditures for the quarters
ended April 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Selling Expenses

     Selling expenses were $3,064,000 for the quarter ended April 30,
1997 and $2,597,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1996, an increase
of 18%.  Selling expenses as a percentage of revenues were 51% for the
quarter ended April 30, 1997 and 44% for the quarter ended April 30,
1996.  The increase in selling expenses in dollars and as a percentage
of revenues is due principally to the addition of sales and marketing
personnel and increased marketing expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

     General and administrative expenses were $1,025,000 for the
quarter ended April 30, 1997 and $1,069,000 for the quarter ended
April 30, 1996, a decrease of 4%. General and administrative expenses
were 17% of revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 1997 and 18% for
the quarter ended April 30, 1996.

Income Taxes

     The Company's effective tax rates on pretax income were 10 % and
28% for the quarters ended April 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. 
Income tax expense was $45,000 and $224,000 for the quarters ended
April 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The decrease in income tax
expense for the quarter ended April 30, 1997 was due to a decrease in
operating income and a relative increase of tax free interest income
as a percentage of total pretax income.

     The Company does not provide for U.S. federal income taxes on
undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as such earnings are
considered to be permanently reinvested.  The amount of undistributed
earnings which would be subject to U.S. federal income tax if
repatriated as of April 30, 1997 was approximately $704,000.  The tax
liability on these earnings, if repatriated, would not be material.

Income Per Share

     Net income per share decreased to $0.09 from $0.13 for the
quarters ended April 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  This decrease
was due primarily to decreased income from operations.
