1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
  ---------------------

  In   the   opinion  of  management,  the  accompanying  unaudited  condensed
  consolidated  financial statements include all adjustments (consisting  only
  of  normal  recurring  accruals) necessary for a fair  presentation  of  the
  consolidated   financial  position  of  Computer   Marketplace,   Inc.   and
  subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 1996, the consolidated  results
  of its operations for the three and nine month periods ending March 31, 1996
  and 1995 and its cash flows for the nine month periods ending March 31, 1996
  and  1995.   Although  the Company believes that the  disclosures  in  these
  financial  statements  are  adequate to make the information  presented  not
  misleading,  certain information and footnote information normally  included
  in  financial  statements  prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted
  accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to  the  rules
  and  regulations  of  the  Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Results  of
  operations  for  the  period  ended  March  31,  1996  are  not  necessarily
  indicative  of  results  to  be expected for the  full  year.   For  further
  information,  refer to the consolidated financial statements  and  footnotes
  thereto  included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended  June  30,
  1995.

  Certain  amounts in the three and nine month periods ended  March  31,  1995
  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been  reclassified  to
  conform to the current presentation.

    Inventory, net                                                $  3,177,174
                                                                     =========


 Inventory on short-term rental consists of new and previously owned computer-
 related equipment which is typically rented to customers for a few months  to
 fulfill  their  temporary  computing  needs.   The  Company,  based  on   the
 satisfactory  economics of the transaction, will allocate existing  inventory
 to  the  transaction if the product is available in-house,  or  purchase  the
 equipment  to  meet the customer's needs.  At the expiration  of  the  rental
 period, upon the return of the equipment to the Company, the equipment is re-
 marketed  for  sale along with similar equipment in the Company's  inventory.
 The  Company charges operations for an estimate of the inventory's  valuation
 decrease  while  it is on temporary rental.  Net increases to  the  inventory
 valuation  allowance  associated with the above equipment  were  $94,905  and
 $166,473  for  the  nine  month  periods ending  March  31,  1996  and  1995,
 respectively.

          Land                                                   $   901,328

4.NOTES PAYABLE
  -------------

  In  September 1995, the Company entered into a new revolving credit facility
  agreement  ("Credit  Facility")  with  a  financing  company.   This  Credit
  Facility replaced the then outstanding $2,000,000 revolving credit line with
  a  bank.   The Credit Facility allows the Company to borrow up to $2,500,000
  and  bears  interest at a rate of 2.25% above the lender's "reference  rate"
  (as defined).  The borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility is dependent
  upon  "eligible"  (as  defined)  accounts  receivable  and  inventory,   and
  fluctuates  daily.  At March 31, 1996, borrowings under the Credit  Facility
  and  additional  amounts available for borrowing under the  Credit  Facility
  were   $2,492,568  and  $7,432,  respectively.   The  Credit   Facility   is
  collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets, except for real
  property.  The Credit Facility expires in September 1997.
  

5.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
  -----------------------------

 On  January 3, 1996 the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of
 948,500  non-qualified stock options to substantially all  employees  of  the
 Company,  its  subsidiaries,  and  the non-employee  directors,  to  purchase
 shares  of the Company's common stock at an exercise price equal to 100%  of
 the  market  value of the Company's common stock on the date of  grant.   The
 stock  options require future employment or services to the Company and  vest
 one  third  each  on January 3, 1997, January 3, 1998 and  January  3,  1999,
 respectively.  The stock options must be exercised by January  3,  2006.   On
 January 3, 1996, 942,500 stock options were granted.

PART  I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- - ---------------------

The  following  information should be read in conjunction with  the  condensed
consolidated  financial  statements and the notes  thereto  included  in  this
Quarterly  Report  and  in the audited Financial Statements  and  Management's
Discussion  and  Analysis  of Financial Condition and  Results  of  Operations
contained   in   the  Company's   Form 10-KSB   for   the  fiscal  year  ended
June 30, 1995.

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Total  revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, were $9,238,465 compared
to  $7,141,375  for  the  quarter ended March 31, 1995.   This  represents  an
increase  of  $2,097,090 or 29%.  Revenues from product sales for the  quarter
ended  March 31,1996 totaled $8,856,029, a $2,160,663 or 32% increase compared
to  $6,695,366 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995.  The increase in  current
quarter product sales revenues compared to the prior year is mainly attributed
to  the  sales  growth  of Medical Marketplace, Inc.   Revenues  from  rental,
service  and  other  for  the quarter ended March 31, 1996  were  $382,436,  a
$63,573   or   14%  decrease  compared  to  $446,009  for  the  quarter  ended
March 31, 1995.

Superior  Solutions, Inc. contributed approximately $203,000 in  revenues  for
the  three  months ended March 31, 1996, compared with approximately  $521,000
for  the  three  months  ended  March 31, 1995.   Superior  Solutions,  Inc.'s
performance  was  disappointing during the quarter, and it appears  that  this
below-standard  performance will continue into the fourth  quarter.   In  late
January  1996, the local manager of the subsidiary was replaced.  In addition,
certain  employees,  including an experienced sales representative,  resigned.
Computer  Marketplace, Inc. is implementing a strategy to more fully integrate
Superior  Solutions,  Inc.'s networking and sales  operations  and  networking
product  lines  into  its California based networking  and  sales  operations.
Management  anticipates that it will require approximately three  more  months
until profitable operations can be obtained from this subsidiary.

Medical Marketplace, Inc. contributed approximately $1,916,000 in revenues for
the  three  months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to $181,000 for the  three
months   ended  March  31,  1995.   Continuing  investments  made  by  Medical
Marketplace, Inc. in experienced sales representatives and technical staff, as
well  as  a growing recognition within the industry as an established reseller
of  previously  owned and upgraded magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),  computed
tomography scanner (CT) and ultrasound equipment have positively impacted  the
sales of this subsidiary. Continued revenue growth and sustained profitability
for  this  subsidiary are expected in the fourth quarter  and  into  the  next
fiscal year.
<PAGE>

                                                                          (10)

Aggregate cost of revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were
$7,837,161 or 85% of revenues and $5,612,103 or 79% of revenues, respectively.
Cost  of  revenue percentages are expected to remain relatively stable  during
the  next fiscal quarter with small decreases anticipated. Factors which  will
favorably  reduce  the cost of revenues percentage include;  a  company  focus
toward  higher  margin transactions through a focus on our end  user  customer
base,  a  change  in  computer sales representative compensation  plans  which
includes a substantially higher base salary and less of a commission component
than  prior  periods  and  the  positive effect  that  higher  margin  medical
equipment sales has on the consolidated percentage.

The  rapidly expanding technology in the computer industry serves  to  enhance
the Company's vertical markets. To capitalize on this opportunity, the Company
is  currently recruiting highly skilled individuals to strengthen its position
as  a  comprehensive computer solutions provider.  This strategy will  provide
the  Company with opportunities for expansion in new targeted markets;  rental
end-user business and equipment leasing, while complimenting and strengthening
its position in the resale computer equipment market.

Previously owned medical equipment is just beginning to gain acceptance in the
health  care community as a cost effective alternative to new equipment.   The
Company believes that its field representative program, financial strength and
support  structure will provide Medical Marketplace, Inc. a distinct advantage
over many of the subsidiary's competitors.

Selling,  general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the quarters  ended
March  31, 1996 and 1995 were $1,289,163 or 14% of revenues and $1,457,618  or
20%  of  revenues, respectively. The aggregate decrease in SG&A expenses  from
the  prior quarter was $168,455 or 12%.  The decrease in current quarter  SG&A
expenses  compared to the prior year is primarily attributed to the  Company's
cost  reduction  strategy.  In response to a revenue shortfall  in  the  first
quarter  of  fiscal  1996  and  after a critical internal  evaluation  of  the
Company's  growing  sales  staff,  the Company  instituted  a  cost  reduction
strategy  during September and October 1995.  This strategy, which capitalizes
on  the  efficiencies gained by administrative improvements and more stringent
sales  performance  criteria  developed by the  Company,  resulted  in  a  net
reduction of fourteen (14) positions in the Company at that time.  At  May  1,
1996  the employee head count consisted of eighty-five (85) full-time and four
(4) part-time employees.  In addition, the Company has consolidated its Corona
personnel  into  one building and has closed its Pennington,  New  Jersey  and
Atlanta,  Georgia  computer  sales offices.   The  Company's  strategy  is  to
transition toward larger regional computer sales offices in order to  minimize
costs and improve operating leverage.  The Company will continue to critically
evaluate  its  own  sales  staff  and  recruit  and  hire  experienced   sales
representatives with backgrounds in strategically important products lines.

Operating  income was $112,141 and $71,654 for the quarters  ended  March  31,
1996  and  1995,  respectively.  This $40,487  or  57%  favorable  change  was
primarily  a  result  of  improved sales performance at Computer  Marketplace,
Inc.,  and  Medical Marketplace, Inc., and the effects of the cost  reductions
described  above,  but was hurt by the negative financial performance  of  the
Company's networking and asset recovery subsidiaries.
<PAGE>
                                                                              
                                                                          (11)

Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 was $96,666 compared  to
$53,559  for  the  quarter ended March 31, 1995.  Management anticipates  that
interest expense will increase slightly from its current levels due to  higher
borrowing costs associated with the current credit facility, higher short-term
borrowing  requirements and scheduled interest payments on existing  long-term
loans.

The  Company's net income was $26,021 or $0.00 per share for the quarter ended
March  31, 1996 versus net income of $9,251 or $0.00 per share for the quarter
ended  March 31, 1995.  The net income was a result of the business conditions
described herein.

NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
- - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total  revenues  for  the nine months ended March 31, 1996,  were  $23,737,114
compared  to  $23,231,491  for the nine months  ended  March  31,  1995.  This
represents  an increase of $505,623 or 2%.  Revenues from products  sales  for
the  nine months ended March 31, 1996, totaled $22,493,820, a $296,497  or  1%
increase  compared to $22,197,323 for the nine months ended  March  31,  1995.
Revenues  from rental, service and other for the nine months ended  March  31,
1996, were $1,243,294 a $209,126 or a 20% increase compared to $1,034,168  for
the nine months ended March 31, 1995.

Superior Solutions, Inc. contributed approximately $1,232,000 in revenues  for
the  nine  months ended March 31, 1996 compared with approximately  $2,124,000
for  the  nine  months  ended  March  31, 1995.   Superior  Solutions,  Inc.'s
performance  was disappointing during the current period, and it appears  that
this  below-standard performance will continue into the  fourth  quarter.   In
late  January  1996,  the local manager of the subsidiary  was  replaced.   In
addition,  certain  employees, including an experienced sales  representative,
resigned.   Computer  Marketplace, Inc., is implementing a  strategy  to  more
fully integrate Superior Solutions, Inc.'s networking and sales operations and
networking  products  lines  into its California based  networking  and  sales
operations.

Medical Marketplace, Inc. contributed approximately $2,612,000 in revenues for
the  nine months ended March 31, 1996, compared to approximately $380,000  for
the  nine months ended March 31, 1995.  Continuing investments made by Medical
Marketplace, Inc. in experienced sales representatives and technical staff, as
well  as  a growing recognition within the industry as an established reseller
of  previously  owned and upgraded magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),  computed
tomography scanner (CT) and ultrasound equipment have positively impacted  the
sales   of   this   subsidiary.   Continued  revenue  growth   and   sustained
profitability for this subsidiary are expected in the fourth quarter and  into
the next fiscal year.

The  Company  believes  that  the  rapid technological  advances  in  computer
products  enhance  its  market.  Many companies  purchase  used  equipment  at
significant  discounts from new equipment to handle most  of  their  computing
needs, as most applications do not require the latest technology available.

Previously owned medical equipment is just beginning to gain acceptance in the
health  care community as a cost effective alternative to new equipment.   The
Company believes that its field representative program, financial strength and
support  structure will provide Medical Marketplace, Inc. a distinct advantage
over many of the subsidiary's competitors.

                                                                          (12)

Aggregate cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 1996  and  1995
were  $20,002,889  or  84% of revenues and $19,621,172  or  84%  of  revenues,
respectively.  Cost of revenue percentages are expected to  remain  relatively
stable  during  the  next  fiscal quarter with  small  decreases  anticipated.
Factors which will favorably reduce the cost of revenues percentage include; a
company  focus toward higher margin transactions through a focus  on  our  end
user  customer  base,  a change in computer sales representative  compensation
plans  which  includes  a  substantially higher base  salary  and  less  of  a
commission  component than prior periods and the positive effect  that  higher
margin medical equipment sales has on the consolidated percentage.

Selling,  general  and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for  the  nine  months
ended  March  31,  1996  and 1995 were $3,943,243,  or  17%  of  revenues  and
$3,802,052, or 16% of revenues, respectively.  The aggregate increase in  SG&A
expenses  from  the  prior period was $141,191 or 4%.  The  increase  in  SG&A
expenses  is  partly  attributed to increases in  costs  associated  with  the
expanded operations of Medical Marketplace, Inc.  SG&A expenses attributed  to
Medical  Marketplace, Inc. were approximately, $335,000 and $171,000  for  the
nine months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Operating  loss was $209,018 and $191,733 for the nine months ended March  31,
1996 and 1995, respectively.  This $17,285 or 9% unfavorable change was due to
losses incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 1996.

Interest  expense  for  the  nine months ended March  31,  1996  was  $277,655
compared  to  $132,013 for the nine months ended March 31,  1995.   Management
anticipates  that interest expense will continue to increase  in  the  current
year  over  similar periods in the prior year, due in part  to  existing  real
estate-secured  financing,  additional short-term borrowing  requirements  and
higher interest rates.

The  Company's  net loss was $443,507 or $0.05 per share for the  nine  months
ended  March 31, 1996, versus $350,520 or $0.04 per share for the nine  months
ended  March  31, 1995.  The net loss was a result of the business  conditions
described herein.


VARIABILITY OF PERIODIC RESULTS AND SEASONALITY
- - -----------------------------------------------

Results  from any one quarter or nine month period cannot be used  to  predict
the  results for the entire year.  Revenues fluctuate from period  to  period;
however,  management does not see any seasonality or predictability  to  these
fluctuations.

                                                                          (13)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- - -------------------------------

The  Company  has  historically financed its growth and cash  needs  primarily
through  borrowings  and cash generated from operations.  The  funds  received
through  the  initial  public  offering  in  June  1993,  in  the  amount   of
approximately $6.6 million, enabled the Company to eliminate most of its long-
term  debt  at that time.  Working capital as of March 31, 1996 and  June  30,
1995 was $3,424,823 and $3,868,587, respectively, consisting primarily of cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and inventory.

During the nine month  period  ended  March 31, 1996,  the  Company  used  the
June  30,  1995 available cash and cash equivalents of approximately  $748,000
and  the  availability  of  borrowing under  the  Company's  revolving  Credit
Facility  in  order to fund the operations of the Company,  which  included  a
$278,137  net  reduction  in accounts payable, accrued  payroll  and  payroll-
related  liabilities, and other liabilities.  Investments made by the  Company
include improvements to its facilities of approximately $128,000, the purchase
of  mobile medical equipment to be used for rental of $116,000 and investments
of approximately $69,000 for machinery, equipment and software.

Management has emphasized an inventory reduction program encompassing both the
stored  inventory,  as well as the inventory on short-term  rental  contracts.
Management  believes  this disciplined strategic reduction  will  enhance  the
Company's  operating effectiveness, provide additional liquidity,  and  reduce
the  exposure to negative inventory valuation adjustments caused  by  changing
market  conditions.  Certain temporary increases in inventory amounts are  due
to  selected  purchases  made by the Company which are  intended  to  be  sold
quickly.   Additional  inventory increases are expected  relating  to  Medical
Marketplace, Inc.'s growth.

In  addition, management intends to investigate alternative financing  options
to be utilized for both our domestic and foreign customers in order to enhance
the  opportunities for the Company's growth.  Equally important,  the  Company
intends to expand the utilization of favorable vendor account payable terms in
conjunction  with its sales, promotion and support of selected vendor  product
lines.   Longer-term cash requirements, other than normal operating  expenses,
are  anticipated for acquisition candidates.  The Company may consider further
financing  in  order  to supplement both internally generated  funds  and  its
current  Credit Facility, which funds could be used to finance a new long-term
equipment rental program and growth beyond the normal revenue increases in its
business.
