The Company believes that the disclosures  contained in the condensed  financial
statements are adequate to make the information  presented not  misleading.  The
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes  thereto,  together  with  management's  discussion  and  analysis  of
financial condition and results of operations, contained in the Company's Annual

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


GENERAL

         The Company provides computer hardware services, including installation
and de-installation of equipment,  computer upgrades,  computer  maintenance and
repair,  and the sale of  computer  parts  and  equipment.  These  services  are
provided to agencies of the  federal  government,  state and local  governments,
universities and commercial  customers in the Mid-Atlantic  region of the United
States, including West Virginia,  Virginia,  Maryland, the District of Columbia,
and Pennsylvania.

         The Company's principal business is providing computer  maintenance and
repair services,  which are provided under both fixed fee and time and materials
arrangements.  Under the fixed fee  arrangement,  which is the primary method of
service,  a customer  pays a fixed  monthly  fee for the term of the  agreement,
generally one to two years,  for which the Company  provides the parts and labor
for both scheduled  preventative  maintenance and emergency repairs. The Company
records  the  revenue  from  fixed fee  contracts  ratably  over the term of the
contract,  while the costs the  Company  incurs to provide the  maintenance  and
emergency  repairs  are  charged  to  expense  as  incurred.   Accordingly,  the
profitability  of the Company's  maintenance and repair services can and will be
affected  by period to period  fluctuations  in the number and  severity  of the
emergency repairs required by its customers, which the Company cannot predict or
control.  Additionally,  in certain  circumstances  the  Company  will choose to
provide the contracted-for services by subcontracting with others,  particularly
when the equipment covered by the agreement is extremely expensive, difficult to
repair  or  replace,  or  requires  unique  engineering  expertise  that  is not
applicable  to equipment  utilized by a  significant  number of  customers.  The
Company obtains such subcontracting services through short-term agreements,  and
its  profit   margin  will   generally  be  lower  than  if  the  work  was  not
subcontracted.  Accordingly,  operating  results  may  fluctuate  from period to
period  as the  result of  changes  in the  level  and  nature of  subcontracted
services.

         The sale of computer equipment accounts for a rapidly expanding portion
of the Company's  business,  and, as a result,  revenues therefrom have and will
continue to  fluctuate  from period to period.  The extent of such  changes will
decrease as the sales in this area stabilize.  In addition,  equipment sales are
entered into more commonly to secure contracts for the maintenance  thereof than
for the profit on the  equipment  sale  itself,  and the  margins on the sale of
equipment are subject to market conditions. Consequently, operating profits as a
percentage  of gross  sales are  subject  to  fluctuation  due to the  volume of
equipment  sales.  Other areas of expansion are in the areas of servicing  laser
printers,  providing  help desk support  services,  design and  installation  of
local-area  network (LAN) and wide-area  network (WAN) systems and expanding the
Company's  technical  capabilities  to maintain the more current  mainframe  and
midrange technology.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The Company's  third  quarter net revenues of  $2,555,771  increased 29
percent over third  quarter net  revenues in the prior fiscal year,  and the net
revenues for the nine months ended  September  30, 1996  increased 59 percent to
$8,286,038 from $5,223,406 in the period ended September 30, 1995. This increase
in net  revenues  resulted  from sales growth in both  maintenance  services and
equipment sales, with the primary increase in revenues generated by inclusion of
revenues from CCS Systems,  Inc., the  acquisition of which was completed by the
Company in December,  1995.  Maintenance  revenues for the three and nine months
ended  September  30, 1996  increased  approximately  37 percent and 30 percent,
respectively,  over the three and nine months ended  September 30, 1995, with 15
percent and 8 percent,  respectively,  provided from  expansion of the Company's
book of  business  and the other 22  percent  for each  period  provided  by CCS
Systems.  Equipment sales for the third quarter of 1996 increased 9 percent over
the same  quarter  of 1995,  caused  by a  decrease  in the  Company's  sales of
approximately 44 percent, but offset by the sales provided by CCS Systems,  Inc.
, which netted a 9 percent  increase.  Equipment sales for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 increased 188 percent over .the same period of 1995, with the
Company's  sales  increasing  19 percent and the  balance of 169  percent  being
provided  by  revenues  generated  by  CCS  Systems.  Management  has  increased
marketing  efforts  to  promote  continued  growth  in both of  these  areas  of
revenues,  and are  directing  the  marketing  staffs of both  companies  toward
cross-promoting  the other  company's  primary areas of  expertise.  Maintenance
services  accounted for  approximately 75 and 70 percent,  respectively,  of the
Company's  consolidated revenues for the third quarters of 1996 and 1995, and 67
and 82 percent, respectively, for the first nine months of 1996 and 1995.

         The Company's  cost of sales as a percentage of revenues was 66 percent
in the third quarters of 1996 and 1995, and 69 percent for the first nine months
of 1996 compared to 62 percent for the first nine months of 1995. An increase in
the costs of maintenance  services as a percentage of maintenance service income
was combined with lower profit  margin  percentages  on the increased  equipment
sales.  The increased  costs of  maintenance  service  resulted  primarily  from
increased  costs of  emergency  replacement  parts  and  increased  reliance  on
subcontracted services. Additionally, gross margins in fiscal 1996 are adversely
affected by the continued development of the Company's Philadelphia and Richmond
operations.  The Company  expects  that the costs of  maintenance  services as a
percentage  of  maintenance  service  income to  increase  more slowly in future
quarters as the Company  expands  the mix of hardware  which will be  maintained
under  contracts  and  as  the  Philadelphia  and  Richmond   operations  become
self-sufficient,   but  hopes  to  partially  offset  these  costs  by  reducing
subcontract  expense as the Company develops the additional  in-house expertise,
and by  increasing  both the book of fixed  fee  agreements  and the  parts  and
equipment  sales. As the Company expands its equipment sales  operations,  gross
margins will also drop as a percentage of overall sales,  due to the lower gross
margins on equipment sales when compared to maintenance sales.

         Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses as a percentage  of net
revenues were 33 and 25 percent for the third  quarters,  respectively,  of 1996
and 1995,  and 29 and 27  percent  for the first  nine  months of 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  The increase was  primarily a result of the hiring of  additional
salespeople and  administrative  staff to expand the customer base and to handle
the additional administrative requirements brought about by the increased number
of customers.  The Company expects short-term fluctuations in this percentage in
the  future  as it adds to its  technical  support,  marketing  staff  and other
administrative  personnel  in order to expand  its  customer  base and  increase
equipment sales.

<PAGE>

         The Company  generated net interest  income during the third quarter of
fiscal 1996 as the result of the use of the  proceeds  from the public  offering
completed  in July of 1995 to  retire  short-term  debt  and  investment  of the
remainder  in  short-term  investments,  pending  application  of the  funds  as
disclosed in the Company's registration statement. Net interest income increased
to $52,813 for the third  quarter of 1996,  compared  with  $42,033 for the same
period of the prior year,  and $153,918  net interest  income for the first nine
months of 1996  compared  to $14,382  for the same  period of 1995.  The Company
expects  that  net  interest  income  will  decrease  as the  proceeds  from the
Company's  initial public  offering  continue to be utilized as projected in the
Company's registration statement.

         Net income  decreased  66 percent to $41,900  for the third  quarter of
1996 from  $130,357 in the third  quarter of the prior year,  and  decreased  38
percent to  $139,200  for the first nine  months of 1996 from  $357,668  for the
first  nine  months  of  1995.   The  decrease  for  the  quarter  is  primarily
attributable  to increased  subcontractor  costs for  maintenance  services when
compared  to the  prior  year,  as well  as  costs  incurred  in  expanding  the
Philadelphia and Richmond operations and also coordinating the operations of the
CCS  Systems  with  the  Company.  Subcontractor  costs  could  decrease  as the
necessary  expertise  is  developed  in-house to service  the newer  technology;
however,  as the Company  signs  contracts on even more recent  technology,  the
services of subcontractors  may still be required.  The Company expects that the
Philadelphia and Richmond  operations' revenues will cover their expenses in the
near future.  However,  internal expansion into other new geographic regions can
be expected to adversely  affect  overall  results  until the newly  established
operation  obtains  maintenance  contracts  sufficient  to cover  minimum  fixed
operating  costs.  Expansion  may also be  accomplished  by the  acquisition  of
existing operations, in which case operating results may not be affected by such
start-up  losses,  but may instead reflect the impact of the amortization of any
goodwill  paid in the  acquisition,  as  occurred  with the  acquisition  of CCS
Systems.

         With the exception of the impact of the  geographic  expansion into the
Philadelphia  and Richmond markets  discussed  above,  the Company's  results of
operations have been materially  consistent.  However, the Company believes that
in the future its results of operations in a quarterly  period could be impacted
by factors such as  increased  competition  in a mainframe  market that has been
shrinking  due to site  consolidations  and  conversions  to  mid-range  network
installations  (which  is a more  competitive  market).  Results  could  also be
affected by the start-up  costs  related to expansion of operations to equipment
not previously  serviced or to geographic  areas not previously  supported.  The
Company's  plans to offset these  factors  include  expansion  of the  mid-range
network support and maintenance  division of operations,  and offering  services
connected with the conversions  themselves that would help assure  continuity of
the maintenance contracts. In addition, expansion of the maintenance services to
include the newer mainframe technology and laser printers,  as well as expansion
of software  support and help desk services will provide for continued growth of
the Company. The coordination of the marketing staff of CCS Systems with that of
the  Company to  cross-market  each  other's  primary  expertise  and to provide
additional  services  to the  combined  list of  customers  is also  expected to
increase the performance of the Company in the future.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Working capital,  which consists principally of cash and investments in
government  securities  for terms of three  months or less,  was  $4,136,035  at
September 30, 1996,  compared to  $4,576,095 at December 31, 1995.  The ratio of
current assets to current liabilities  increased to 5.6:1 from 4.7:1 at December
31, 1995. Cash flows provided by operations during the first nine months of 1996
totaled $175,792, resulting primarily from a decrease in accounts receivable due
to collections on large equipment sales, and partially offset by the decrease in
accounts payable from payment of the costs of those sales,  which were paid upon
collection of the receivables. The increase in the current ratio was due chiefly
to the  increase in accounts  receivable  relative to accounts  payable,  offset
partially  by the payment of the  remainder  of the cash portion of the purchase
price of CCS Systems,  which amounted to $485,000. The Company believes that its
existing cash is sufficient to satisfy its currently anticipated working capital
needs.

         Effective  October 4, 1996,  the Company's  $750,000  revolving line of
credit  with  Citizens  Bank of Maryland  was renewed to continue  until May 31,
19976. There is presently no balance owed on this line of credit.

         The Company's principal  commitments at September 30, 1996 consisted of
obligations under operating leases for facilities.
