Item 2.  Identity and Background.

Pursuant to Rules  13d-2(a))  promulgated  under the Securities  Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Act"), this Statement on Schedule 13D/A is being filed on
behalf of N. Damodar Reddy, an individual ("Mr. Reddy"), and N.D.R. Investments,
Inc.,  a Nevada  corporation  ("NDR  Investments").  The  foregoing  persons are
sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Reporting Persons".

NDR  Investments  was  incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 29, 1994,
and its  business  address is 931 Tahoe  Boulevard,  Suite 6,  Incline  Village,
Nevada,  California 89451-9409.  Mr. Reddy is the sole shareholder,  officer and
director of NDR Investments. Mr. Reddy established NDR Investments for financial
planning purposes.

Mr. Reddy is the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of
the Issuer,  and his principal  business address is 2575 Augustine Drive,  Santa
Clara,  California  95054.  Mr. Reddy is a U.S.  citizen.  Mr. Reddy became a 5%
shareholder  of the Issuer as a reporting  company  under the Act as a result of
the  Issuer's  initial  public  offering in  November  1993,  and in  connection
therewith  Mr.  Reddy filed a  Statement  on  Schedule  13G with  respect to his
beneficial  ownership  of  securities  of the Issuer on  February  14,  1994 and
amended such  Statement on February  14, 1995.  On February 22, 1995,  Mr. Reddy
filed a Statement on Schedule 13D, to which this is an amendment.

During the last five  years,  neither of the  Reporting  Persons  has been:  (i)
convicted in a criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic  violations  or similar
misdemeanors);  or  (ii)  a  party  to  a  civil  proceeding  of a  judicial  or
administrative  body  of  competent  jurisdiction  as a  result  of  which  such
Reporting  Person  was or is  subject  to a  judgment,  decree  or  final  order
enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating  activities  subject
to,  federal or state  securities  laws or finding any violation with respect to
such laws.

________________________________________________________________________________
Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

MR. REDDY.

In October 1991, the Issuer issued 100 shares of Common Stock to Mr. Reddy,  one
of the Issuer's founders, in satisfaction of accrued salaries payable,  pursuant
to the Issuer's  Reorganization under Chapter II of the United States Bankruptcy
Code  dated  March  18,  1991.  As a  result  of  subsequent  stock  splits  and
conversions,  such 100 shares have become  6,000,000  shares of Common Stock. In
August  1999,  the  Issuer  issued to Mr.  Reddy an  incentive  stock  option to
purchase up to 200,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer.  Within 60 days
from the date of this Statement,  none of such stock option will be exerciseable
by Mr. Reddy. As of March 10, 2000, Mr. Reddy owned of record  7,571,750  shares
of the Common Stock of the Issuer.


NDR INVESTMENTS.

From February 3, 1995 to date, Mr. Reddy has  transferred  to NDR  Investments a
total of  345,000  shares of the  Issuer's  Common  Stock  held by Mr.  Reddy in
exchange for shares of the Common Stock of NDR Investments.

________________________________________________________________________________
Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

Each of the Reporting  Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer
for  investment.  Over time,  each of the  Reporting  Persons  will review their
respective  investments  in the Common Stock of the Issuer and may, at such time
and from time to time,  determine  to acquire  additional  shares of such Common
Stock or to dispose of all or any portion of the shares of such Common  Stock at
any time held by such Reporting Person. Neither of the Reporting Persons has any
plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:

(a) The acquisition of additional securities of the Issuer (other than transfers
of  securities  of  the  Issuer  from  Mr.  Reddy  to NDR  Investments),  or the
disposition  of any  securities  of the Issuer,  other than sales,  from time to
time, of the Common Stock of the Issuer in accordance with Section 16 of the Act
and Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

(b) An extraordinary corporate transaction,  such as a merger, reorganization or
liquidation involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

(c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or of any of
its subsidiaries;

(d) Any change in the present  board of directors or  management  of the Issuer,
nor any plans or  proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill
any existing vacancies on the board;

(e) A material  change in the present  capitalization  or dividend policy of the
Issuer;

(f) Any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure;

(g) Any change in the  Issuer's  charter,  bylaws or  instruments  corresponding
thereto or other  actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of control of the
Issuer by any person;

(h) A  class  of  securities  of the  Issuer  being  delisted  from  a  national
securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in the inter-dealer
quotation system of a registered national securities association;

(i) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination
of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or

Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

________________________________________________________________________________
Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

MR. REDDY

(a) As of March 10, 2000, Mr. Reddy owned  beneficially  and of record 7,916,750
shares  of the  Common  Stock  of the  Issuer,  which  represented  18.7% of the
Issuer's  Common Stock (based on  42,233,928  shares  outstanding).  Such amount
includes 345,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer owned  beneficially and of
record by NDR  Investments.  All the share  amounts set forth in this  paragraph
take  into  account  a  3-for-2  stock  split  in the  form of a stock  dividend
undertaken by the Issuer as of January 6, 1995.

(b) Mr. Reddy has the sole voting, disposition and investment power with respect
to the  7,571,750  shares  listed  above.  Mr. Reddy is married and resides in a
community property State.

(c) From February 3, 1995 to date, Mr. Reddy has  transferred a total of 345,000
shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer to NDR Investments. In addition, during
the last 60 days,  Mr. Reddy effected the following  dispositions,  all of which
were sales in the Nasdaq  National  Market in broker's  transactions  under Rule
144:

   3/6/00      10,000      Sale                                $26.13
               -----------
       total   20,000
</TABLE>

(d) No other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct
the receipt of  dividends  from or  proceeds  from the sale of any shares of the
Common Stock of the Issuer owned by Mr. Reddy.  Mr. Reddy is married and resides
in a community property State.

(e) Not applicable.

NDR INVESTMENTS

(a) As of March 10,  2000,  NDR  Investments  owned  beneficially  and of record
345,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer,  which represented 0.8% of the
Issuer's Common Stock (based on 42,233,928 shares outstanding).

(b) Because NDR  Investments  may be deemed to be controlled  by Mr. Reddy,  Mr.
Reddy will likely be deemed to have voting,  disposition  and  investment  power
with respect to the 345,000 shares listed above.

(c) From February 3, 1995 to date, NDR Investments has been transferred from Mr.
Reddy a total of 345,000  shares of the Common  Stock of the Issuer.  During the
last 60 days, NDR Investments effected no transactions.

(d) No other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct
the receipt of  dividends  from or  proceeds  from the sale of any shares of the
Common Stock of the Issuer owned by NDR Investments.

(e) NDR  Investments is not, and has never been,  the beneficial  owner of 5% or
more of the shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer.

________________________________________________________________________________
Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
         to Securities of the Issuer.

The  only  contract,  arrangement,   understanding  or  relationship  (legal  or
otherwise)  between the persons named in Item 2 are the  documents  creating NDR
Investments.
