Item 4   Purpose of Transaction

                  The purpose of the transactions  reported by this Schedule 13D
was and is investment in the securities of the Issuer.  The Partnership seeks to
generate returns by investing in public companies in the information  technology
industry that have "fallen from favor".  The  Partnership  identifies  companies
with undervalued  securities and acquires  significant  minority stakes in them.
The  Partnership  continues  to believe  that the  shares of the  Issuer  remain
undervalued  at the time of this filing.  The  Partnership  intends to pay close
attention to  developments  at and  pertaining  to the Issuer,  and,  subject to
market  conditions and other factors deemed  relevant to it, the Partnership may
purchase,  directly or  indirectly,  additional  shares of the Issuer's stock or
dispose of some or all of such  shares in  open-market  purchases  or  privately
negotiated transactions.  Furthermore,  the Issuer may from time to time contact
large  shareholders  with a view towards  discussing  the  acquisition  of their
shares.  While the  Partnership has no present plans or proposals that relate to
or would result in any change in the business, policies,  management,  structure
or  capitalization   of  the  Issuer,   the  Partnership  may  communicate  with
shareholders  and various  parties  including  the  management  and the board of
directors of the Issuer  concerning  the possible  ways to increase  shareholder
value. Other than as described above,  neither the Partnership nor Mr. Goldsmith
have plans or proposals which would result in any of the following:

     a. the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or
the disposition of securities of the Issuer;

     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 any
of its subsidiaries;

     d. any  change in the  present  board of  directors  or  management  of the
Issuer,  including  any  plans or  proposals  to  change  the  number or term of
directors or to fill any vacancies on the board;

     e. any 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. changes in the Issuer's  charter,  by-laws or instruments  corresponding
thereto or other  actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of control of the
Issuer by any person;

     h.  causing  a class of  securities  of the  Issuer to be  delisted  from a
national  securities  exchange or to cease to be  authorized  to be quoted in an
interdealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

     i.  causing a class of  securities  of the  Issuer to become  eligible  for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or
