                      REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                                       

To the Participants and Administrator of the
STB Systems, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan 
benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan 
benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available 
for plan benefits of the STB Systems, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan at December 
31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits 
for the year ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of 
the plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these 
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which 
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance 
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An 
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts 
and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting 
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating 
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole. The additional information included in 
Schedules I and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not 
a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional 
information required by ERISA. The Fund Information in the statements of net 
assets available for benefits with fund information and the statement of 
changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information is 
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net 
assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for 
benefits of each fund. Schedules I and II and the Fund Information have been 
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic 
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material 
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

STB SYSTEMS, INC 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.     DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

       The following description of the STB Systems, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan
       (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer
       to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's
       provisions.

       GENERAL

       The Plan, established in 1991, is a nondiscriminatory defined
       contribution plan for all employees of STB Systems, Inc. (the 
       "Company") who have completed one month of credited service and elect to 
       participate. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee 
       Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). It has been amended to 
       incorporate legislative changes required by the various tax acts enacted 
       since 1984.

       CONTRIBUTIONS

       Eligible employees may elect to make contributions to the Plan by means
       of compensation reductions of up to 15% of their compensation. Employees
       may allocate their contributions to investment options in 1% increments.
       Effective January 1, 1997 the Company increased the amount of
       contributions it matches from 25% to 50% of each dollar of employee tax
       deferred contributions up to a maximum of 4% of each employee's annual
       pay.

       PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS

       Participants' accounts are credited with the participants' contributions
       and an allocation of (a) the Company's contribution and (b) Plan
       earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account
       balances. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit
       that can be provided from the participant's vested account.

       VESTING OF CONTRIBUTIONS

       Participants' contributions to the Plan are 100% vested at all times.
       Employer contributions to the Plan are vested in accordance with a Plan
       document schedule based on the participant's length of service with the
       Company. The schedule provides for full vesting after five years of
       credited service.

       INVESTMENT OPTIONS

       Eligible participants have eleven investment options as detailed in the
       Statement of Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits with Fund
       Information. See Note 4 for discussion of the change in the Plan's
       trustee that occurred during 1997.

       The assets from a predecessor custodian remain with New England Company
       as custodian and are included in Plan assets. These assets are a prior
       fixed income option. No further contributions can be made to this
       investment option.

       Participants may change their investment options daily.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

       In the event of a participant's termination of employment, retirement,
       disability, or death, the participant or beneficiary may elect to receive
       an amount equal to the vested value of their account in either a lump-sum
       or periodic payments of substantially equal installments at least
       annually.

       PARTICIPANT NOTES RECEIVABLE

       Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up 
       to a maximum equal to the lesser of (a) or (b) below:

       (a)    $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding balance of loans during
              the one-year period ending on the day before the new loan is made;

       (b)    The greater of (1) or (2) below:

                (1)  One-half of the participant's vested account balance;
                (2)  $10,000.

       All loans are required to be repaid within five years of the loan. The
       loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear a
       reasonable rate of interest as determined by the Loan Administrator.
       Principal and interest are repaid through payroll deductions. The
       Principal Financial Group is the custodian of the Loan Account.

       FORFEITED ACCOUNTS

       At December 31, 1997 and 1996, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled
       $3,610 and $1,346, respectively. These funds were used to reduce future
       employer contributions.

       EXPENSES OF ADMINISTERING THE PLAN

       The Company pays expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

       The financial statements of the Plan are prepared in accordance with
       generally accepted accounting principles. Assets are stated at market
       value; unrealized appreciation and depreciation of the assets are
       reflected in the asset balances. Gains or losses on investments are
       realized at the time of sale.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

       Management of the Company believes that the Plan is qualified under
       Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and therefore believes the
       trust is exempt from taxation under Section 501(a). The Internal Revenue
       Service granted a favorable letter of determination to the Plan in
       October, 1993. Generally, contributions to a qualified plan are
       deductible by the Company when made, earnings of the trust are tax
       exempt, and participants are not taxed on their benefits until withdrawn
       from the Plan.

       Management of the Company is unaware of any variations in the operations
       of the Plan from the terms of the Plan document as amended. The Plan has
       complied with the fidelity bonding requirements of ERISA.

       VALUATION OF SECURITIES

       Valuation of securities is based on the last recorded sales price at
       year-end, as reported by the principal security exchange on which the
       security is traded. Securities transactions are recorded on a trade-date
       basis.

       RECOGNITION OF INTEREST INCOME

       Interest is recognized on an accrual basis.

       DETERMINATION OF UNREALIZED GAIN OR LOSS ON INVESTMENTS

       Unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of investments
       held at year-end and gain or loss on sale of investments during the year
       are determined using the fair value at the beginning of the year or
       purchase price if acquired during the year.

       REPORTABLE TRANSACTIONS

       For the Plan year 1997, the reportable transactions as defined in Item
       27d and Part V of Form 5500 are listed in Schedule II.

       USE OF ESTIMATES

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
       accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
       assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
       Actual results could differ from these estimates.

       PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

       Benefits are recorded when paid.

       TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

       Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Employer has the
       right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions or to terminate the
       Plan at any time without any liability whatsoever for such discontinuance
       or termination.  In the event of Plan termination, participants are
       entitled to 100 percent of their vested individual and Employer accounts.

       RECLASSIFICATIONS

       Certain reclassifications have been made to the amounts reported in the
       prior year in order to conform to current year presentation.

3.     INVESTMENTS

       Prior to July 1, 1997, investments were maintained by Nationwide Life
       Insurance Company as custodian, except for certain assets from a 
       predecessor custodian which are held by New England Company.

       Effective July 1, 1997, investments are maintained by The Principal 
       Financial Group as custodian, except for certain assets from a 
       predecessor custodian which are held by New England Company.

       The fair values of individual investments that represent five percent or
       more of the Plan's net assets available for benefits at December 31, 1997
       and 1996 were as follows:
