           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
                              OCTOBER 1, 1994

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Principles of Consolidation

    The financial  statements  include  the  accounts of  all  majority-owned
subsidiaries.  All   significant   intercompany   transactions   have   been
eliminated.

    Net Earnings Per Share

    The net  earnings  per  common  share  and common  share  equivalents  is
computed by dividing net earnings by  the weighted average number of  shares
and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during each period. Common
stock equivalents result from dilutive  stock options and warrants  computed
using the treasury stock  method. Fully diluted earnings  per share did  not
differ from primary earnings per share in the periods presented.

2.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

</TABLE>
               
     Revenues  for third  quarter  1994 of $113.6 million increased 17% from
third quarter 1993 revenues of $97.1  million.   Revenues for the first nine
months of 1994 totaled $390.5 million, an increase  of 24.1% from the $314.7 
million of revenue in the first nine months of 1993.  The  increase  in both
the  third  quarter  and the  first  nine months of  1994  results from  the 
inclusion of revenues of acquired  companies and  increased  revenue  levels
resulting  from  implementing  open  systems  solutions  for  the  Company's 
customers  and  offset by  declines in the sale and servicing of proprietary
hardware  and  software  products.  The majority of the increase in hardware
products  is  attributable  to  the  inclusion   of  revenue   from   recent 
acquisitions  that  were  completed  in  the  fourth quarter of 1993 and the 
first quarter of 1994.

</TABLE>

     A combination of factors contribute to an increase in cost of  revenues
greater than the increase in revenues,  which results in lower gross  margin
dollars as  a percentage  of revenue  in the  third quarter  and first  nine
months of 1994 compared to the comparable  periods of 1993.  Revenue mix  in
terms of a greater proportion of  lower margin hardware business  associated
with recent acquisitions, lower quantities of higher margin maintenance  and
proprietary hardware  sales  combined with  lower  margins on  software  and
services revenue are  the primary factors  contributing to  the decrease  in
overall gross  margin  dollars and  lower  gross margin  percentages.    The
software  and  services   gross  margin   is  primarily   impacted  by   the
underutilization of the technical resources  due to contract award  slippage
and the changing skill requirements required by the Company's direction into
specific market focused programs.

Selling, general  and administrative  (SG&A).   SG&A  expense in  the  third
quarter of 1994 is slightly lower than the comparable quarter in 1993.  SG&A
expense for the first  nine months of  1994 has increased  by 1.4% from  the
comparable period  in 1993.   The  inclusion of  companies acquired  in  the
fourth quarter of 1993 and the first  quarter of 1994 is the primary  reason
for the increase.  SG&A expenses  associated with the non-acquired  business
base has  decreased approximately  13%  in the  first  nine months  of  1994
compared to the comparable period in 1993.

Technical.  The  decrease in technical  expense is an  ongoing trend as  the
Company continues its  transition from a  provider of proprietary  products,
which requires higher technical spending as  a percentage of revenues, to  a
systems integration company.

</TABLE>                                   

Interest expense.  Interest expense decreased in the third quarter and first
nine months  of 1994  versus the  comparable periods  in 1993  due to  lower
interest rates on outstanding borrowings.

Interest income.   Interest income decreased  in the third  quarter and  the
first nine months of 1994 versus the comparable periods of 1993 due to lower
average daily cash  and short-term investment  balances combined with  lower
interest rates on the investments.

Other income.  Other income increased by $.6 million in the third quarter of
1994 versus the third quarter of the  previous year.  The primary factor  in
this increase is an increase in favorable foreign currency exchange gain  in
the current quarter versus the comparable quarter in 1993. Other income  for
the first nine  months of  1994 is $3.6  million lower  than the  comparable
period in  1993.    The primary  factors  for  the decrease  relate  to  the
inclusion of  a gain  on investments  in 1993  arising out  of the  sale  of
Silicon Graphics Inc. common stock versus no similar gain on investments  in
1994, a $.7 million loss in affiliates in 1994 versus a gain of $.2 in  1993
primarily related  to  the Company's  fifty  percent interest  in  Metaphase
Technologies, Inc. and $1.0 million other expense in 1994 resulting from the
reduction in  the market  value of  certain  short-term investments  due  to
increases in interest rates.

     The provision for income taxes in  third quarter and first nine  months
of 1994  and the  comparable periods  in 1993  relate primarily  to  foreign
income taxes  on the  earnings of  the  Company's foreign  subsidiaries  and
foreign  withholding  taxes  on  certain  United  States  income  and  state
franchise taxes.

     The Company operated  at a net  loss for the  third quarter and  first
nine months of 1994 compared  to a net gain  for the comparable periods  in
1993.  The primary  factors are the lower  gross margins and the  decreased
other income  in 1994  versus the  comparable periods  of the  prior  year.
Operating results  for  the nine  months  ended  October 1,  1994  are  not
necessarily indicative of  the results that  may be expected  for the  year
ending December 31, 1994.

Outlook

     The  following  factors,  among   others,  should  be  considered   in
evaluating the Company's outlook.

General.  The Company  participates in the  systems integration segment  of
the information systems and services market.  This segment is projected  to
grow by  more  than  15% per  year  over  the next  four  years.  Equipment
manufacturers, large consulting firms  and traditional systems  integrators
also compete in  this market segment.   There are  many smaller firms  also
active in this market segment with no one firm having a dominant  position.
Many of the companies  in this market segment  offer outsourcing and  other
types of long-term  agreements with  their customer  base.   The result  of
these types of activities is to develop a backlog of business that  creates
a certain predictable revenue  base in future periods.   The Company has  a
limited  number  of  these  types  of  arrangements.    Therefore,  revenue
predictability is currently difficult, which produces additional volatility
of earnings quarter to quarter.

     Business activity in selected operations during the first nine  months
of 1994 has fallen below the Company's business plan.  Slower than  planned
revenues  from  systems  integration  activities,  significant  decline  in
revenues at certain recently acquired companies, lower than expected  gross
margins associated with  hardware sales and  excess technical resources  in
the consulting sector  have been the  primary issues.   While expenses  are
also below the  Company's plan,  the reduction  is not  adequate to  offset
lower gross margin levels.  The Company is nearing completion of a thorough
review of  its  worldwide  business operations  and  market  opportunities.
Tentative  findings  indicate  a  reduction  in  the  geographic  scope  of
operations, downsizing  of employment  levels worldwide  and refocusing  of
product and service  offerings is necessary  to remain  competitive in  the
future.  The  Company announced in  October an  anticipated fourth  quarter
1994 restructuring and asset valuation charge of approximately $95  million
that is expected to result from the completion of the review and the fourth
quarter decisions to be made  based upon the results  of the review.   This
charge will include expenses for reducing the worldwide employee population
by  approximately  600   people,  consolidating   operations  in   selected
locations, and revaluing of intangible assets associated with  acquisitions
and certain proprietary  hardware assets.   The cash portion  of the  total
restructuring charge will be approximately half of the total charge.

             AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Unaudited) (Continued)
                           (Dollars in Millions)

Revenues.  The Company expects total revenues to increase in 1994 over 1993
levels due in  part to the  recent acquisition activity  in Canada and  the
United Kingdom and in part to increased revenues from providing integration
services to its customers,  offset by declining revenues  in the sales  and
servicing of  proprietary  products.   Revenue  levels  in  1995  could  be
impacted  by  the    elimination   or  downsizing  of  selected   worldwide
operations.

Cost of revenues. The Company's cost  of revenues as a percentage of  total
revenues increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994  from
the comparable periods of the prior  year.  Gross margins, as a  percentage
of sales, for the balance of 1994 are expected to continue at levels  lower
than comparable periods in 1993 and lower than the Company's business  plan
for 1994.  The gross margin trend for 1995 is difficult to predict at  this
point in  time.   Cost savings  resulting  from the  planned  restructuring
program could be partially offset by  continuing declines in the  servicing
of proprietary products and a change in revenue mix, resulting from  faster
growth in lower margin hardware products.  Due to varying gross margins  of
different types  of product  sales and  varying gross  margins of  specific
large projects quarter to quarter, total gross margins will be volatile.

Selling, general and administrative expenses.   SG&A expenses are  expected
to decrease as a percentage of  revenues in 1994, as revenues are  expected
to increase at a faster rate than SG&A expenses, including the expenses  of
the acquired  businesses.    Excluding  the  expense  associated  with  the
acquired businesses, SG&A  expense has  been declining  during 1994  versus
1993 levels.  This  trend is expected  to continue in  1995 primarily as  a
result of the restructuring activity.

Technical expenses.  Technical spending declined  in the third quarter  and
for the first nine months of 1994 from the comparable periods in 1993.  The
Company continues to transition away from  being a provider of  proprietary
products, which  requires  higher technical  spending  as a  percentage  of
revenues than does a systems integration  company.  Technical spending  for
the fourth quarter of 1994 is expected to be comparable to the first  three
quarters of the year.   Technical spending in  1995 is expected to  decline
further as the majority of the technical spending for proprietary  products
is expected to be completed in 1994. Some of this decline will be offset by
higher spending on Electronic Commerce products and services, which is  one
on the company's primary targeted markets.

Income tax rate.  In  total, the Company has  $110 million of deferred  tax
assets at January  1, 1994, which  can be used  to offset  taxes on  future
earnings.  While the Company  maintains significant operations outside  the
United States, the majority of these operations will also have deferred tax
assets as of  December 31, 1994,  resulting from lower  than expected  1994
earnings, caused in  part by the  planned worldwide restructuring  program.
In the long term this will significantly reduce the Company's tax  expense.
However, given the wide geographical dispersion of the Company's operations
the tax rate will be volatile.

Foreign exchange.  A large percentage of the Company's revenues, costs  and
expenses are transacted in  local currencies.  As  a result, the  Company's
financial results are subject to foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Accounting standards.   Accounting standards promulgated  by the  Financial
Accounting Standards Board change periodically.  Changes in such standards,
including currently  proposed  changes  in accounting  for  employee  stock
option plans, may have a negative  impact on the Company's future  reported
earnings.

Financial Condition

     The Company's cash and short-term investments totaled $76.6 million at
October 1, 1994 and represented 23.1% of total assets.  The Company has  no
long-term debt. Stockholders' equity at October 1, 1994 was $174.2 million.
As a  result of  the planned  restructuring  and asset  revaluation  charge
announced by the  Company in October,  1994, stockholders'  equity will  be
impacted by  the  charge  excluding any  revaluation  of  foreign  currency
translation adjustments.   Total  cash and  short-term investment  balances
declined by $5.0 million from the  corresponding January 1, 1994  balances.
The primary factors in the decrease are the acquisition of MICHAEL Business
Systems Plc  which  totaled  $3.8  million,  restructuring  payments  which
totaled $16.3 million and property and equipment investments which  totaled
$6.0 million offset by an increase in short-term borrowings of $6.5 million
and positive cash flow from operations.

     As of October 1, 1994, the Company has available up to $31.2  million,
primarily short-term notes  and overdraft facilities,  under bank lines  of
credit in certain international subsidiaries.   The Company has a  domestic
credit arrangement which provides up to  $10.0 million in unsecured  short-
term credit.

     The Company has $16.5 million of restructure obligations as of October
1, 1994, $11.0 million which  are expected to be  cash outlays in the  next
twelve months primarily  for severance costs,  lease and other  obligations
related  to  excess   facilities,  and  litigation   costs.  In   addition,
approximately half of the Company's  estimated restructuring charge of  $95
million in the fourth quarter of this year will require cash.  The  Company
believes that it  can finance this  additional cash  requirement through  a
combination of existing  cash reserves,  cash flow  from operations,  asset
sales and its borrowing  capacity.  To  the extent it  may be necessary  to
supplement these sources  of cash, the  Company could  seek financing  from
strategic investors  and through  future debt  or equity  financing in  the
public or private markets.  The ability  of the Company to borrow money  or
to sell debt or equity securities will depend on its results of operations,
financial condition  and business  prospects, as  well as  conditions  then
prevailing in the computer industry and the relevant capital markets.
