Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership satisfied its minimum offering requirements and commenced 
operations on September 22, 1995.  On that date, subscribers for 126,118 
Units were admitted as Limited Partners of the Partnership.  On May 12, 1997, 
the Partnership terminated its offering of Units with 461,817 ($9,235,185) 
Units sold.

The Partnership's primary sources of capital for the six months ended June 
30, 1997 and 1996, were from Partners' contributions of $1,186,000  and 
$2,213,000, respectively, and cash from operations for the quarter ended June 
30, 1997 and 1996 of $645,000  and $435,000, respectively.  The primary uses 
of cash  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 were for capital 
expenditures for new equipment totaling $1,077,000 and $964,000, 
respectively, the payment of offering costs of $192,000 and $276,000, 
respectively, the payment of preferred distributions to partners of $442,000 
and $248,000, respectively, and the payment of acquisition fees of $53,000 
and $74,000, respectively.  For the quarter ended June 30, 1996, the 
Partnership made a payment of accounts payable of $148,000 to Com Cap Corp. 
for the purchase of Equipment.

Currently, Partners' contributions and rental income from the Partnership's 
leases are invested in money market accounts investing directly in treasury 
obligations pending the Partnership's use of such funds to purchase 
additional computer equipment, to pay Partnership expenses or to make 
distributions to the Partners.  At June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 the 
Partnership had approximately $2,629,000 and $2,552,000, respectively, 
invested in these money market accounts.

The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring computer equipment and 
generally leasing it under "triple-net leases" to operators who generally 
meet specified financial standards minimizes the Partnership's operating 
expenses. As of  June 30, 1997, the Partnership had future minimum rentals on 
noncancellable operating leases of $1,618,000 for the year ending December 
31, 1997 and $5,523,000 , thereafter. The Partnership intends to continue 
purchasing additional computer equipment with existing cash, as well as when 
future cash becomes available.  In addition, the Partnership may incur debt 
in purchasing computer equipment after the net proceeds of the Offering are 
fully invested in Equipment.

The Partnership's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate 
to cover all operating expenses, liabilities, and preferred distributions to 
Partners during the next 12 month period.  If available Cash Flow or Net 
Disposition Proceeds are insufficient to cover the Partnership expenses and 
liabilities on a short and long term basis, the Partnership will attempt to 
obtain additional funds by disposing of or refinancing Equipment, or by 
borrowing within its permissible limits.  The Partnership may also reduce the 
distributions to its Partners if it deems necessary.  Since the Partnership's 
leases are on a "triple-net" basis, no reserve for maintenance and repairs 
are deemed necessary.

Results of Operations

For the quarter ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership recognized income of 
$516,000 and expenses of $498,000, resulting in net income of $18,000.   For 
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership recognized income of 
$405,000 and expenses of $369,000, resulting in  net income of $36,000.

Lease income increased by 98% from $240,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 
1996 to $476,000 for the quarter ended  June 30, 1997, primarily due to 
utilizing cash available from Partners' contributions for the purchase of 
Equipment, which in turn generated more lease income.   During the six months 
ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership expended $1,077,000 and incurred a 
computer equipment payable of $3,151,000 to acquire five leases, which 
generated approximately $139,000  in revenue.

Interest income increased  161% from $15,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 
1996 to $39,000  for the quarter ended  June 30, 1997. This increase is the 
result of capital contributions temporarily being invested in money market 
accounts until being utilized for equipment purchases.  In addition, the 
Partnership recognized a loss on sale of computer equipment of $32,000 for 
the quarter ended June 30, 1997.

Operating expenses, excluding depreciation, primarily consist of accounting, 
legal, and outside service fees.  The 90% increase from approximately $7,000 
for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $13,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 
1997 is attributable to an increase in outside services fees.

The equipment management fee is equal to 5% of the gross lease revenue 
attributable to equipment which is subject to operating leases.   The 
equipment management fee increased 98% from approximately $12,000 for the 
quarter ended  June 30, 1996, to $24,000 for the quarter ended  June 30, 
1997, which is consistent with the increase in lease income.

Depreciation and amortization expenses consist of depreciation on computer 
equipment, amortization of organizational costs, and equipment acquisition 
fees.   The expenses increased 86% from approximately $220,000 for the 
quarter ended June 30, 1996, to $408,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997, 
which is attributable to the purchase of approximately $4,307,000 in 
additional equipment.

For the six month period ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership generated cash 
flow from operating activities of $645,000, which includes net income of 
$54,000, and depreciation and amortization expenses of $777,000.  Other 
noncash activities included in the determination of net income includes lease 
income paid to original lessors in lieu of cash payments for computer 
equipment of $78,000.
   
For the six month period ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership generated cash 
flows from operating activities of $435,000, which includes a net loss of 
$16,000, and depreciation and amortization expenses of $450,000.
