                                   (Unaudited)

Basis of Presentation

        The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by
Inprimis, Inc. and subsidiaries, formerly Boca Research, Inc., (the "Company")
in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding interim financial reporting and, accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as
of September 30, 2000, the results of its operations for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2000, and 1999, and its cash flows for the
nine month periods ended September 30, 2000, and 1999. These results have been
determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles and
practices applied consistently with those used in the preparation of the
Company's 1999 audited consolidated financial statements.

        The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced net
operating losses since 1997 and as of September 30, 2000, had an accumulated
deficit of $34.8 million. Cash used in operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 was $6.0 million. Such conditions may indicate that the
Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of
time. The Company has implemented efforts to bring the Company's expense
structure in line with the reduced revenue levels being achieved. Although there
can be no assurances that the Company will return to profitable operation in the
near term, management believes that existing cash balances and cash generated
from operations will be sufficient to meet its liquidity and capital needs for
the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurances that the Company
will succeed in achieving its goals, and its failure to do so would have a
material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and
operating results and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and
classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.

        The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Company's most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999.  The results of operations for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000, are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

        Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current presentation.

Recent Developments and Subsequent Events

        The Company embarked upon a plan in early 2000 to transition from being
primarily a data communications products manufacturer to its new focus on
providing software and systems solutions-based services. The Company had
previously announced that it was exiting the data communications business. In
conjunction with this transition, the Company decided to change the name of the
Company from Boca Research, Inc. to Inprimis, Inc. The Company's data
communications sales continued to decline in the three months ended September
30, 2000, and the Company expects insignificant sales of data communication
products in the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2000. The Company has
eliminated its purchase orders for new products from Boundless Manufacturing
Services, Inc. ("Boundless"), the manufacturing subcontractor utilized by the
Company. Procurement of new data communications products was eliminated by
September 30, 2000. The Company previously announced the sale of certain assets
to Zoom Telephonics, Inc. ("Zoom") which is providing the Company with a smooth
and customer oriented transition out of the analog modem business. These actions
resulted in the Company determining that the goodwill and tradenames related to
the data communications business had been impaired as of June 30, 2000, and the
Company recorded a charge to operations of $2,683,000 in the second quarter of
2000. The elimination of new purchase orders to Boundless will result in the
Company's falling short of the guarantee purchase commitments under the Supply
Agreement (the "Supply Agreement") between the Company and Boundless. Although
purchases by Zoom from Boundless of the Company's products relating to the
analog business may mitigate the shortfall, (see "Agreement between Boca
Research, Inc. and Zoom Telephonics" and "Commitments and Contingencies"), the
Company had estimated that this shortfall would be $1,950,000 and had taken a
charge to operations for this amount in the second quarter ended June 30, 2000.
As of October 31, 2000, Zoom had not made any commitments to manufacture the
Company's products at Boundless.

        The charges to operations relating to impairment of goodwill and
tradenames and the shortfall for the guarantee purchase commitment are recorded
under "Asset impairment and other charges" in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The
Company will continue to discharge its warranty obligation on all products sold.
The warranty obligation is included within the caption "Accrued expenses and
other current liabilities" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Agreement between Boca Research, Inc. and Zoom Telephonics

        As previously reported, on July 28, 2000, the Company concluded a
definitive agreement with Zoom (the "Agreement") pursuant to which Zoom acquired
certain of the Company's assets, including selected trademarks such as Global
Village(TM), rights to Global Village and Boca Research branded products, and
certain Web domain names. Under the Agreement, the Company

                                  (Unaudited)

continues to support all the products it has already shipped or will be shipping
and will remain responsible for warranty, returns and technical support for
these products. The Company will outsource technical support to Zoom in order to
provide customers with a single point of contact. Zoom, acting as a master
distributor, has the right to sell products from the Company's inventory,
utilizing the Global Village and Boca Research brand names. Zoom has the right
to introduce new products within both product lines. In general, except for
minor royalty payments, no payment will be received except that the Company is
entitled to be paid a purchase price based on the sales performance schedule as
follows: $500,000 if sales by Zoom of the Company's existing product lines over
the following 12 months exceed $12 million; $1.0 million if sales by Zoom of the
Company's existing product lines over the following 12 months exceeds $19
million; and $2.0 million if sales by Zoom of the Company's existing product
lines over the following 12 months exceeds $24 million. The determination of the
purchase price was arrived at by negotiation among the parties. Net sales by the
Company of its analog modem and other PC peripheral products for the quarters
ended March 31, 2000, June 30, 2000, and September 30, 2000, were $4.3 million,
$2.7 million, and $2.1 million respectively. If Zoom manufactures the Company's
products at Boundless, the Company will receive credit against the Company's
minimum guarantee commitment. As of October 31, 2000, Zoom had not made any
commitments to manufacture the Company's products at Boundless.

Supplemental Cash Flow Information

        Net cash payments (refunds) for income taxes were $2,000 and
($2,044,000) for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Interest payments of $0 and $185,000 were made in the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

        Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity during a period
except those resulting from investment by owners and distributions to owners.
The Company's comprehensive income (loss) equals its net loss for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, and net loss is the only
component of comprehensive income (loss) for such periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

         The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and
accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximates fair value.

        At September 30, 2000, the Company had sold its 20% ownership interest
in PowerTel, a joint venture in India. Sales to this related party in the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were $0 and $72,000, respectively.
During July 2000, the Company closed on the sale of its interest in PowerTel and
received net proceeds of $314,000, resulting in a gain of $238,000. This net
gain is reflected in "Non-operating income, net" in the condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000.

Deferred Revenue

        Revenue from engineering services contracts is recognized as the work is
performed using the percentage of completion method. Revenue from product
licensing or software royalties is recognized as earned in accordance with the
terms of the contracts. Amounts received but unearned are recorded as deferred
revenue.

Line of Credit

        The Company had a two-year collateralized revolving line of credit
agreement which originally expired on November 9, 2000, and permitted borrowings
of the lesser of $5 million or 60% of qualified accounts receivable and 20% of
eligible inventory. During March 2000, the Company's total credit limit under
the loan agreement was reduced from $5 million to $2.5 million. The interest
rate during the second year of the agreement was 1/2% in excess of the prime
rate. The loan agreement required the Company to maintain certain financial
ratios, limited the incurrence of additional debt, and prohibited payment of
dividends without the lender's consent. No borrowings were outstanding as of
December 31, 1999 or September 30, 2000. The line of credit was terminated early
on October 6, 2000, and the Company does not currently intend to replace it.

Commitments and Contingencies

       On March 3, 2000, the Company completed the sale of certain of its assets
(the "Purchased Assets") relating to its manufacturing operations at 1377 Clint
Moore Road for the manufacture of products, including modems, to Boundless
Manufacturing Services, Inc. ("Boundless"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Boundless Corporation, for $1,700,000 in cash and notes (the "Boundless
Transaction"). The sale was part of the Company's efforts to improve gross
margins and resulted in a gain of $277,000. In accordance with the terms of the
Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and Boundless Technologies, Inc.,
which was assigned to Boundless on the closing of the transaction, Boundless
paid the Company $700,000 in cash and Boundless issued to the Company a 6%
promissory note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $1,000,000 to be paid in
eight equal installments of $125,000 plus accrued interest commencing on June 1,
2000, and on the first business day of every third month thereafter, until paid
in full. The obligations of Boundless under the Note are guaranteed by Boundless
Technologies, Inc. and Boundless Corporation. Additionally, concurrent with the
closing of the Boundless Transaction, the Company entered into a Supply
Agreement with Boundless (the "Supply Agreement") pursuant to which the Company
agreed to outsource the manufacture of certain products to Boundless for a
period of two years.

                                   (Unaudited)

         Under the Supply Agreement, the Company guarantees that it will
purchase products resulting in proceeds to Boundless exclusive of costs of
materials, of at least $3,775,000 during the first year of the term of the
Supply Agreement. To the extent the Company falls short of the cumulative
prorated amount guaranteed in any of the four 90 day periods subsequent to March
3, 2000, the amount of the shortfall would be due within 30 days after the end
of the 90 day period in which the shortfall occurred. As noted under "Recent
Developments and Subsequent Events," the Company eliminated its purchase of data
communications products from Boundless and has estimated that there will be a
shortfall in meeting its contractual purchase commitment of $1,950,000. The
calculation of the shortfall in the purchase commitment took into consideration
the Company's purchase requirements for data communications products through
September 30, 2000, the use of Boundless to fulfill the Company's obligations
for warranty repairs, and other opportunities to satisfy the purchase
requirements that are afforded by the contract with Boundless. As of September
30, 2000, no payments had been made to adjust the original amount of the
contractual purchase commitment liability. In the event of any default under the
Note, the Company is entitled to offset any amounts due to Boundless under the
Supply Agreement. There is no minimum purchase obligation during the second year
of the Supply Agreement.

        The Company receives communications from time to time alleging that
certain of the Company's products infringe the patent rights of other third
parties. The Company cannot predict the outcome of any such claim which may
arise in the future, or the effect of any such claim on the Company's operating
results or financial condition.

        The Company has been named a co-defendant in an action brought in the
United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, by NEC
Technologies, Inc. ("NEC"). The suit alleges that the Company supplied modem
hardware to NEC, which was combined by NEC with software supplied by another
co-defendant, Ring Zero Systems, Inc. NEC was subsequently sued for patent
infringement by PhoneTel Communications, Inc. ("PhoneTel"), allegedly as a
result of NEC's combination of modem hardware and software supplied by the
vendors in its personal computer products. NEC alleges that the Company and Ring
Zero are obligated to indemnify NEC for NEC's costs of defense and settlement of
the PhoneTel suit, in the amount of $327,000. This action was dismissed without
prejudice on April 25, 2000; however, the reason for the dismissal was entirely
procedural, and there has been no resolution of the substantive dispute. The
Company anticipates that NEC will refile this action in an appropriate
jurisdiction in the near future. The Company continues to evaluate the claim,
but does not presently believe the claim will have a material adverse effect on
the Company's operating results and financial condition.

        The Company and its Boca Global, Inc. subsidiary have been named
co-defendants in an action brought in the District Court of South Dakota, by
Gateway, Inc. ("Gateway"). Global Village, Inc. had contracted to supply its
FaxWorks software to be bundled with Gateway PCs. Gateway's complaint against
the Company and Boca Global, Inc. alleges that either or both of

         NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont'd)
                                   (Unaudited)

these entities assumed the liabilities of Global Village, Inc. with respect to
the FaxWorks product. Gateway reportedly will pay between $5 million and $6
million to settle litigation brought by PhoneTel, for which Gateway is seeking
indemnification from the Company, Boca Global, Inc., and an unrelated
co-defendant. While the Company believes it will be able to assert numerous
defenses to liability, the Company is unable to estimate what impact, if any,
this claim will have upon the Company's financial statements, given the
preliminary nature of the claim.

Stockholders' Equity

        During the nine month period ended September 30, 2000, 132,995 shares
were issued in connection with the exercise of options granted under the
Company's stock option plans and with purchases by employees through the
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The aggregate proceeds received from these
exercises were $502,000.

Stock Option Plan

        During the nine month period ended September 30, 2000, the Company
granted options to purchase 720,420 shares at prices ranging from $2.91 to $7.69
to both new and existing employees. During the nine month period ended September
30, 2000, options to purchase 230,171 shares were canceled.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

        In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101 "Revenue Recognition" which provides
guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial
statements filed with the SEC. SAB No. 101 is applicable beginning with the
Company's fourth quarter consolidated financial statements. Based on
management's current analysis of SAB No. 101, management does not believe it
will have a material impact on the financial results of the Company.

the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $7.7 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net
sales decreased 54.9% to $12.3 million from $27.2 million for the comparable
period in 1999. Sales in the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
2000 versus the comparable period in 1999 are shown by product category as

       The sales decrease was primarily attributable to data communications
products. Sales of data communication products were adversely affected by
industry-wide lower sales, pricing pressure, and the decision to exit the data
communications business.

       With respect to the Global Village branded product, net sales decreased
to $869,000 and $4.3 million in the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2000 as compared to net sales of $3.5 million and $11.0 million in the
comparable periods of 1999. The inclusion of non-Global Village brand modems
with certain models being sold by Apple Computer, Inc. continued to negatively
impact sales of Global Village modems along with the decision by the Company to
exit the data communications business.

       Engineering services revenue for the three months ended September 30,
2000, consisted primarily of $1.3 million for contract engineering, $394,000 in
royalties from licensing the Company's Internet appliance reference design, and
$269,000 from prototype and product sales arising from engineering contracts.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, engineering services revenue
consisted primarily of $2.0 million for contract engineering, $800,000 in
royalties from licensing the Company's Internet appliance reference design, and
$274,000 from prototype and product sales arising from engineering contracts.

       International sales were $185,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2000 compared to $815,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, international sales decreased by 65%
to $1.2 million from $3.4 million for the comparable period in 1999.

       Gross Profit. Gross profit was $1.3 million or 32.0% of net sales for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $223,000 or 2.9% of net
sales for the three months ended September 30, 1999. The Company's gross profit
improvement for the three months ended September 30, 2000, was the result of the
Company's transition from being primarily a data communications products
manufacturer to providing software and systems solutions-based services. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2000, gross profit decreased by 52.6% to $1.3
million from $2.8 million for the comparable period in 1999. The Company's gross
profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, was negatively impacted by
deteriorating profit margins on data communications products which was caused by
industry conditions and the Company's announced plans to exit the data
communications business.

       On March 3, 2000, the Company completed the sale of certain of its assets
(the "Purchased Assets") relating to its manufacturing operations at 1377 Clint
Moore Road for the manufacture of products, including modems, to Boundless, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Boundless Corporation, for $1,700,000 in cash and
notes (the "Boundless Transaction"). The sale was part of the Company's efforts
to improve gross margins and resulted in a gain of $277,000. In accordance with
the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and Boundless
Technologies, Inc., which was assigned to Boundless on the closing of the
transaction, Boundless paid the Company $700,000 in cash and Boundless issued to
the Company a 6% promissory note (the "Note") in the principal amount of
$1,000,000 to be paid in eight equal installments of $125,000 plus accrued
interest commencing on June 1, 2000, and on the first business day of every
third month thereafter, until paid in full.  The obligations of Boundless under
the Note are

                                       15
<PAGE>

guaranteed by Boundless Technologies, Inc. and Boundless Corporation.
Additionally, concurrent with the closing of the Boundless Transaction, the
Company has entered into a Supply Agreement with Boundless (the "Supply
Agreement") pursuant to which the Company agreed to outsource the manufacture of
certain products to Boundless for a period of two years.

       Under the Supply Agreement, the Company guarantees that it will purchase
products resulting in proceeds to Boundless exclusive of costs of materials, of
at least $3,775,000 during the first year of the term of the Supply Agreement.
To the extent the Company falls short of the cumulative prorated amount
guaranteed in any of the four 90 day periods subsequent to March 3, 2000, the
amount of the shortfall would be due within 30 days after the end of the 90 day
period in which the shortfall occurred.  As noted under "Recent Developments and
Subsequent Events," the Company eliminated its purchase of data communications
products from Boundless and has estimated that there will be a shortfall in
meeting its contractual purchase commitment of $1,950,000.  The calculation of
the shortfall in the purchase commitment took into consideration the Company's
purchase requirements for data communications products through September 30,
2000, the use of Boundless to fufill the Company's obligations for warranty
repairs, and other opportunities to satisfy the purchase requirements that are
afforded by the contract with Boundless.  As of September 30, 2000, no payments
had been made to adjust the original amount of the contractual purchase
commitment liability.  In the event of any default under the Note, the
Company is entitled to offset any amounts due to Boundless under the Supply
Agreement.  There is no minimum purchase obligation during the second year of
the Supply Agreement.

         The gross profit margins for the Company have been impacted by poor
general industry conditions such as lower sales and declining prices and the
Company's transition out of the data communications business. The Company's
decision to exit the data communications business will result in insignificant
data communications product sales in the fourth quarter of 2000. The factors
that have affected gross margins in the past for the data communications
business, such as product and channel mix, wholesale distributors and retailers
versus OEM's, component costs and manufacturing efficiency and capacity
utilization will be different for the software and systems solution-based
services business. Also, industry dynamics are different for a service business
versus a products business.

       Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses
decreased to $433,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $849,000
in the three months ended September 30, 1999. Research and development expenses
decreased to $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $2.8
million in the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Research and development
expenses decreased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 versus
the comparable periods in 1999 primarily as the result of closing the Sunnyvale,
California location and the reclassification to cost of goods sold of certain
engineering costs previously classified as research and development that are now
related to contract engineering revenue.

       In the short term, as the Company makes the transition into an
engineering services organization, a significant portion of the total hours
worked on engineering projects will not be billable to third party clients and
are therefore internal research and development related. In the future, the
Company's goal is to bill external clients for an increasing portion of the
engineering

                                       16
<PAGE>

hours. While there is no assurance that it will be able to pass along such
costs, the Company intends to continue expending capital towards research and
development projects.

       Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased to $1.8 million in the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $4.4 million in the three months ended September 30,
1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
decreased to 42.0% in the three months ended September 30, 2000 from 57.4% in
the three months ended September 30, 1999. Selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased to $9.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2000
from $13.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 73.3% in
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 50.6% in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased in
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 versus the comparable period
in 1999 primarily as the result of the Company's efforts to reduce expenses. The
Company's expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 were $1.0 million lower for technical
support, $943,000 lower for rent, $802,000 favorable for warranty expense,
$766,000 lower for marketing development funds, $502,000 lower for thin client
marketing expense, $352,000 lower for trade shows, $205,000 lower for freight
and courier costs, and included a $292,000 gain on the sale of fixed assets.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
sales will continue to fluctuate and will be influenced by the level of sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses are likely to be different for a
service business than for a products business. The Company is adjusting this
expense to support the anticipated sales level of the new business. Certain
selling, general and administrative expenses have a fixed nature, thus a
reduction in net sales may result in an increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales.

        Asset Impairment and Other Charges. As discussed above, the Company
previously announced the sale of certain assets to Zoom which will provide the
Company with a smooth and customer oriented transition out of the analog modem
business. These actions resulted in the Company determining that the goodwill
and tradenames related to the data communications business had been impaired as
of June 30, 2000, and in the Company recording a charge to operations of
$2,683,000 in the second quarter of 2000. The elimination of new purchase orders
to Boundless will result in the Company's falling short of the guarantee
purchase commitments under the Supply Agreement with Boundless. Although
purchases by Zoom from Boundless of the Company's product relating to the analog
business may mitigate the shortfall, (see "Commitments and Contingencies" and
"Agreement between Boca Research, Inc. and Zoom Telephonics"), the Company has
estimated that this shortfall will be $1,950,000 and has taken a charge to
operations for this amount. As of October 31, 2000, Zoom had not made any
commitments to manufacture the Company's products at Boundless.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        During the period from December 31, 1999, through September 30, 2000,
the Company's working capital decreased by $7.4 million. This decrease was
represented by decreases in accounts receivable of $1.2 million and inventory of
$3.7 million and an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities
of $872,000, offset by decreases in accounts payable of $2.5 million and
deferred revenue of $269,000. Also in the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
the Company had a $956,000 gain associated with the sale of shares previously
received in connection with an exclusive marketing agreement, a gain on the sale
of a foreign investment of $238,000, and a $292,000 gain on the sale of fixed
assets. The Company's operations used cash of $6.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000.

        The Company had a two-year collateralized revolving line of credit
agreement which originally expired on November 9, 2000, and permitted borrowings
of the lesser of $5 million or 60% of qualified accounts receivable and 20% of
eligible inventory. During March 2000, the Company's total credit limit under
the loan agreement was reduced from $5 million to $2.5 million. The interest
rate during the second year of the agreement was 1/2% in excess of the prime
rate. The loan agreement required the Company to maintain certain financial
ratios, limited the incurrence of additional debt, and prohibited payment of
dividends without the lender's consent. No borrowings were outstanding as of
December 31, 1999 or September 30, 2000. The line of credit was terminated early
on October 6, 2000, and the Company does not currently intend to replace it.

        The Company incurred substantial operating losses in 1997, 1998, 1999,
and in the first nine months of 2000 and it is likely that cash flow from
operations will be negative in 2000. Such conditions may indicate that the
Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of
time. However, management has implemented efforts to bring the Company's expense
structure in line with the reduced revenue levels being achieved. Further, the
Company may have additional cash requirements in connection with the Boundless
Transaction. The elimination of new purchase orders to Boundless will result in
the Company's falling short of the guarantee purchase commitments under the
Supply Agreement with Boundless. Although purchases by Zoom from Boundless of
the Company's products relating to the analog business may mitigate the
shortfall, (see "Agreement between Boca Research, Inc. and Zoom Telephonics" and
"Commitments and Contingencies"), the Company has estimated that this shortfall
will be $1,950,000 and has taken a charge to operations for this amount. This
will be a cash outflow over the next six months. As of October 31, 2000, Zoom
had not made any commitments to manufacture the Company's products at Boundless.
Although there can be no assurances that the Company will return to profitable
operations in the near term, management believes that existing cash balances and
cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its liquidity and
capital needs for the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurances
that the Company will succeed in achieving its goals, and its failure to do so
would have a material adverse affect on its business, prospects, financial
condition, and operating results and the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.

        The Company regularly evaluates acquisitions of businesses, technologies
or products complementary to the Company's business. In the event that the
Company pursues one or more acquisitions, the Company's cash balances may be
utilized to finance such acquisitions and additional sources of liquidity such
as debt or equity financing may be required for such acquisitions or to meet
working capital needs. There can be no assurance that additional capital beyond
the amounts forecasted by the Company will not be required or that any such
required

                                       18
<PAGE>

capital will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all, at such
time or times as required by the Company.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Performance

         In addition to the other information contained in this Report, the
following are important factors that should be considered carefully in
evaluating the Company and its business:

         Transition of Company. The Company embarked upon a plan in early 2000
to transition from being primarily a data communication products manufacturer to
its new focus on providing software and systems solutions-based services. Such
transition was substantially completed on July 28, 2000 upon the sale of the
Company's analog modem business. Currently, the Company has very limited
experience providing software and systems solutions-based services, and there
can be no assurances that the Company will succeed in implementing its as-yet
unproven business plan. Risks associated with this transition include:

     a.  the existence of a limited number of network operators and information
         appliance  manufacturers that have deployed products and services using
         the Company's technology;
     b.  potential delays in deploying high-speed networks and internet-enhanced
         services and applications by the Company's customers;
     c.  an unproven business model, which depends on revenues from engineering
         services and royalty fees paid by information appliance manufacturers
         and network operators; and
     d.  a potential inability of the Company to expand its engineering and
         design staff, increase its sales or marketing activities, and invest in
         its technological infrastructure.

         Uncertainty in Development of an Evolving Industry. The market for
intelligent computing devices is emerging and the potential size of this market
and the timing of its development are not known. As a result, the profitability
of the Company is uncertain and its revenue may not grow as fast as anticipated,
if at all. The Company is dependent upon the broad acceptance by business and
consumers of a wide variety of intelligent computing devices, which depend on
many factors, including:

     a.  the development of content and applications for intelligent computing
         devices;
     b.  the willingness of large numbers of businesses and consumers to use
         devices such as handheld and palm-size PCs and handheld industrial data
         collectors to perform functions currently carried out manually or by
         traditional PCs, including inputting and sharing data, communicating
         among users and connecting to the Internet; and
     c.  the evolution of industry standards that facilitate the distribution of
         content over the Internet to these devices via wired and wireless
         telecommunications systems, satellite or cable.

       There can be no assurances that the Company will succeed in achieving its
goals, and its failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on its
business, prospects, financial condition and operating results and the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.

                                       19
<PAGE>

         Software Development and Services Market; Low Barriers to Entry. The
market for software development and services is becoming increasingly
competitive. Increased competition may result in price reductions, lower gross
margins and loss of market share, which would harm the Company's planned
business. The Company faces competition from:

     a.  current and potential customers' internal research and development
         departments that may seek to develop their own proprietary solutions;
     b.  large professional engineering services firms that may enter the
         market;
     c.  established intelligent computing device software and tools
         manufacturers; and
     d.  small- and medium-sized engineering service companies.

         As the Company assists other companies in developing new products,
particularly products focused on specific industries, they may begin competing
with companies in sectors that have not been identified above. It is also
possible that new competitors will enter the market or that existing competitors
will form alliances that may enable them to rapidly increase their market share.
The barriers to entering the market as software developer or hardware design
consultant for intelligent computing devices are low. New market entrants may
have lower overhead than the Company and therefore be able to offer advantageous
pricing. The Company expects that competition will increase as other established
and emerging companies enter the intelligent computing device market and as new
products and technologies are introduced.

         New Products and Services, and Technological Changes. The markets for
the Company's products and services are characterized by rapidly changing
technology, evolving industry standards and short product life cycles. The
Company's success depends upon its ability to enhance its existing products and
services and to introduce new products and services with features that meet
changing end-user requirements. The Information Technology ("IT") sector in
which the Company offers outsourcing and other services is characterized by
rapidly changing technology with continuous improvements in both computer
hardware and software and rapid obsolescence of current systems. The Company's
success will depend in part on its ability to develop solutions that keep pace
with continuing changes in information technology, evolving industry standards
and changing client preferences. Additionally, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in identifying new markets, in developing and
marketing new products and services, or in enhancing its existing products and
services, either internally or through strategic relationships with third
parties. The Company's business would be adversely affected if the Company were
to incur delays in developing new, or enhancing existing, products and services,
due to delays in obtaining any required regulatory approvals for its products or
if any such new products or enhancements did not gain market acceptance. In
addition, there can be no assurance that products or technologies developed by
others will not render the Company's products or technologies noncompetitive or
obsolete.

         Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Results. The Company's quarterly
operating results have varied significantly, and continue to vary significantly,
depending on a number of factors, some of which could adversely affect the
Company's operating results and the trading price of the Company's Common Stock.
These factors include the level of demand for the Company's products and
services, competition, competitive pricing pressures, and the timing of
engineering contracts and completion of the contracts per the specified terms.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to return to its growth
in revenue or profitability on a quarterly or annual

                                       20
<PAGE>

basis. The Company's expense levels are based, in part, on its expectations as
to future revenue. If sales and revenue levels are below expectations, operating
results may be adversely affected, which would likely have an adverse effect on
the trading price of the Company's Common Stock.

         Acquisitions. The Company may from time to time pursue the acquisition
of other companies, assets, technologies or product lines that would complement
or expand its existing business. Certain of these acquisitions may involve
businesses in which the Company lacks experience. Acquisitions involve a number
of risks that could adversely affect the Company's operating results, including
the diversion of management's attention, the assimilation of the operations,
products and personnel of the acquired companies, the amortization of acquired
intangible assets and the potential loss of key employees of the acquired
companies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify
businesses that would complement or expand its existing business or such
acquisitions, manage one or more acquisitions successfully, or that the Company
will be able to integrate the operations, products, or personnel gained through
such acquisition without a material adverse impact on the Company's business,
financial condition, and results of operations, particularly in the quarters
immediately following such acquisitions.

         Competition. The markets for the Company's products and services are
increasingly competitive, resulting in increasing pricing pressures. Some of the
Company's competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, product
development, manufacturing and marketing resources than the Company. The Company
believes that its ability to compete depends on a number of factors, including
price, quality and reliability, availability, credit terms, name recognition,
delivery time, and post-sale service and support. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to continue to compete successfully with respect to
these factors. A variety of companies currently offer products and services that
compete directly with the Company's products and services. These competitors
could introduce additional products and services that are superior to the
Company's, or that achieve greater market acceptance. The introduction of lower
priced competitive products and services or significant price reductions by the
Company's competitors would result in price reductions in the Company's products
and services that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
operating results. In addition, as the Company enters into new markets, such as
Internet TV appliances, the Company anticipates that it will encounter
competition from a number of well-established companies, many of which have
greater financial, technical, product development, manufacturing and marketing
resources and experience.

         Proprietary Rights; Dependence on Software Licenses. The Company
receives from time to time, and may receive in the future, communications from
third parties asserting intellectual property rights relating to the Company's
products and technologies. There can be no assurance that in the future the
Company will be able to obtain licenses of any intellectual property rights
owned by third parties with respect to the Company's products or that any such
licenses can be obtained on terms favorable to the Company. If the Company is
unable to obtain licenses of protected technology, it could be prohibited from
developing and marketing products incorporating that technology. The Company
could also incur substantial costs in redesigning its products or in defending
any legal action taken against it. Should the Company be found to infringe the
proprietary rights of others, the Company could be required to pay damages to
the infringed party, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
operating results.

                                       21
<PAGE>

         In certain of its products, the Company includes software licensed from
third parties. The Company's operating results could be adversely affected by a
number of factors relating to this third party software, including lack of
market acceptance, failure by the licensors to promote or support the software,
delays in shipment of the Company's products as a result of delays in the
introduction of licensed software or errors in the licensed software, or excess
customer support costs or product returns experienced by the Company due to
errors in the licensed software. Moreover, any impairment or termination of the
Company's relationship with any licensors of third party software could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's operating results.

         Volatility of Stock Price. The price of the Company's Common Stock
historically has been volatile due to fluctuations in operating results and
other factors relating to the Company's operations, the market's changing
expectations for the Company's growth, overall equity market conditions relating
to the market for technology stocks generally and other factors unrelated to the
Company's operations, including announcements by or relating to the Company's
competitors. Such fluctuations are expected to continue. In addition, stock
markets have experienced more price volatility in recent years. This volatility
has had a substantial effect on the market prices of securities issued by many
technology companies, often for reasons unrelated to the operating performance
of the specific companies.

         Dependence on Key Personnel. The Company is highly dependent on its
executive officers and other key personnel, many of whom could be difficult to
replace. If certain of these people were to leave the Company, operating results
could be adversely affected. The future growth and success of the Company also
depends in part on its ability to attract and retain skilled employees.

customers or prospects, as shown by the Company's records, that were employees,
consultants, agents, suppliers, customers or prospects of the Company at any
time during the year immediately preceding the termination of employment
hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean the
resignation of Mr. Will due to (a)a material change in Mr. Will's duties and
responsibilities which interfere with his ability to manage the affairs of the
Company, (b)a material modification of Mr. Will's duties hereunder such that
such duties are not consistent with the duties of a chief executive officer of a
company of similar size and in a similar business as the Company, or (c)a Change
of Control (as defined in the Option Agreement).

broad or otherwise unreasonable under applicable law, including with respect to
time or space, the court is hereby requested and authorized by the parties
hereto to revise the foregoing restrictions to include the maximum restrictions
allowed under the applicable law. Mr. Will expressly agrees that breach of the
foregoing would result in irreparable injuries to the Company, that the remedy
at law for any such breach will be inadequate and that upon breach of this
provision, the Company, in addition to all other available remedies, shall be
entitled as a matter of right to seek injunctive relief in any court of

                 Section 1 hereof or to follow the lawful directives of the
                 Board of Directors (provided that the lawfulness of such
                 directives is confirmed by general counsel to the Company),
                 which failure or refusal is not cured within 15 days subsequent
                 to notice from the Company to Mr. Will specifying the nature of
                 such failure or refusal; or

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
                      v)      the breach by Mr. Will of any material terms of
                 this Agreement, which beach is not cured within 30 days
                 subsequent to notice from the Company to Mr. Will specifying
                 such breach.

                      vi)     the failure to maintain proper immigration
                 documentation and approvals for Mr. Will to provide the
                 services required under this Agreement.

                 c) Termination Upon Death or Disability. Mr. Will's employment
hereunder shall automatically terminate upon Mr. Will's death or upon his
inability to perform his duties hereunder by reason of any mental, physical or
other disability for a period of at least six consecutive months, as determined
by a qualified physician selected by Mr. Will from a list of five physicians
selected by the Company.

                 d) Termination by the Company Without Cause. The Company shall
have the right to terminate Mr. Will's employment at any time for any reason
without Cause.

                 e) Resignation by Mr. Will. Mr. Will shall have the right to
resign his employment with the Company, in good standing, provided a 60 day
notice is given, at any time for any reason.

         9.      Effect of Termination of Employment.

                 a) With Cause; Resignation; Death or Disability. If Mr. Will's
employment is terminated with Cause pursuant to Section 8(b), if Mr. Will's
employment is terminated by the death or disability of Mr. Will pursuant to
Section 8(c), or if Mr. Will elects to terminate his employment, Mr. Will's
salary and other benefits specified in Section 4 shall cease at the time of such
termination; provided, however, that Mr. Will shall be paid for all accrued and
unused vacation and be entitled to continue to participate in the Company's
medical benefit plans to the extent required by law. Further, in the event Mr.
Will's employment is terminated by the death or disability of Mr. Will pursuant
to Section 8(c), Mr. Will will be entitled to be paid a prorata amount of bonus,
if any, which would have been earned by Mr. Will based upon the earnings of the
Company as of the end of the quarter during which Mr. Will's death or
termination by disability occurred. By way of example, in the event Mr. Will
died on September 15 during the Employment Term and the Company, at the end of
the third quarter, earned 110% of its Targeted Business Plan for the entire
employment year, Mr. Will would be entitled to the amount of bonus which would
have been paid pursuant to Section 4(b) of this Agreement in the event Mr. Will
had survived the entire year based upon such 110% achievement.

                 b) Without Cause by the Company. If Mr. Will's employment is
terminated by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 8(d), Mr. Will's
salary and other benefits specified in Section 4 shall cease at the time of such
termination,

                                      -5-

provided, however, that Mr. Will shall be entitled to be paid for all accrued
unused vacation and continue to participate in the Company's medical benefit
plan to the extent required by law.

                 In the event the termination occurs within the first eighteen
(18) months of this Agreement,

                      (i)     Mr. Will shall be entitled to receive his annual
                 base salary payable under Section 4(a) for a period through the
                 twenty-fourth (24th) month of this Agreement, and

                      (ii)    all options which would have vested during such 24
                 months shall accelerate and immediately vest.

                 In the event such termination occurs after the first eighteen
months of this Agreement, Mr. Will shall be entitled to receive one year's
annual base salary, payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments commencing
on the 1st day of the month following termination, as "Severance Pay." Further,
all existing stock options theretofore granted to Mr. Will shall be deemed
immediately vested, subject to the terms of the 1992 Employee Stock Option Plan.

                 Mr. Will shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment provided for in this Section 9(b) by seeking other employment or
otherwise; provided, however, that if Mr. Will accepts any other employment for
compensation of any kind, deferred or otherwise, during such period during which
the said Severance Pay is being made, such Severance Pay shall terminate and the
Company shall be under no further obligations to Mr. Will therefor. In the event
of such termination whereby the Severance Pay is being made as provided above,
Mr. Will's employment shall be deemed to continue during such period that the
severance payments are being made, exclusively for the purpose of exercising
options pursuant to the 1992 Employee Stock Option Plan and for the purpose of
Mr. Will's continuing on the Company's group medical, dental, and life insurance
plans. Mr. Will shall also be entitled to receive the amount of all bonuses
required to be paid to Mr. Will under Section 4(b) for the year ended December
31 of such year of termination.

         10.     Insurance.  The Company may purchase insurance on the life of
Mr. Will, and if it does so, Mr. Will shall cooperate fully by performing all
the requirements of the life insurer which are necessary conditions precedent to
the issuance of the life insurance policy issued by it.

         11.     Notice. Any notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been given when personally delivered or when
mailed, certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to the following
addresses or such other address as to which notice is given in the manner
provided herein:

Mr. Will initiates an action or claim to enforce any provision or term of this

upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, its permitted successors and
assigns and Mr. Will, his representatives and heirs. The Company will require
that any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase of stock or assets,

the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof and may not be modified or amended in any way except in writing by the
