ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS



(a) General Development of Business



Synergistics, Inc. a Massachusetts corporation (the "Company") organized on May
13, 1960 is located at 9 Tech Circle, Natick, Massachusetts 01760, telephone
(508) 655-1340.  The Company's principal activity consists of manufacturing and
marketing access control systems, which it sells to banks, and other commercial
customers.



Current Products:



MSLR1 - ATM Vestibule Access Control: The MSLR1 product line continues to be a
substantial revenue producer for the Company.  It is a minimal security access
control system utilizing a single reader and controller to control access to a
single door in an automatic teller machine (ATM) lobby installation.  The
Company currently sells to over 30,000 bank installations worldwide.

ATM-III - ATM Vestibule Access Control:  This product controls access to ATM
vestibule installations similar to the MSLR1 product.  It offers high security
to the installations and has currently found a new market in banks located in
shopping malls.

ATM Access - ATM Vestibule Access Control:  ATM Access is a distributed
processing access control system developed in 1994 to meet the requirements for
New York City's Local Law 70, a law passed to increase security in ATM
installations.  The ATM Access system meets the requirements of the law by using
a database supplied to the banks by NYCE which provides reasonable assurance
that only bank card gain entrance to ATM vestibule installations. Today, there
are over 1,500 installations in and around New York City.

Citicorp ATM Access - ATM Vestibule Access Control:  This product uses the ATM
Access product as a base controller for a customized, networked access control
system for all Citibank ATM installations in New York City.  This product was
first shipped in 1998 and will be installed in 1999.  It played a major part in
the sales increase in 1998.

PO-VAC - Post Office Lobby Access Control:  This product is currently being sold
to the U.S. Post Offices of Connecticut to provide security to Post Office
lobbies which are to be open to the public 24 hours per day.  No appreciable
numbers of the product have been sold in 1999.  Post Office lobbies are
currently being renovated by the Postal Service to make provisions for PO-VAC
installations in 2000.

PC-PAC - Central Processing Access Control System: The PC-PAC system provides
alarm security and monitoring capability for complete facility management.  It
has the capability of controlling 256 access controlled areas, supporting over
35,000 authorized persons, while providing monitoring capability for 1,600 alarm
points in the system.  PC-PAC utilizes a desk top PC as a central processing
unit.  It is available in a single computer version or with a redundant computer
running in hot standby.  PC-PAC is currently being phased out of the product
line, to be replaced by WA-PAC for Windows.

WA-PAC - A DOS based distributed processing building management system:  WA-PAC
is an access control system which supports a network of buildings or sites from
a Personal Computer, over dial-up or direct, voice grade, telephone lines or
fiber optics communications.  WA-PAC operates as a distributed intelligent
network of card access readers and controllers which provide access control and
building security to buildings or groups of buildings. Each building can have up
to 64 card access readers and over 4,000 alarm and output points.  It will
support databases of over 50,000 users.  WA-PAC is currently being phased out of
the product line and has been replaced by WA-PAC for Windows NT.

WA-PAC FOR WINDOWS NT -  A Windows NT based distributed processing building
management system:  This product is a modern version of the DOS WA-PAC system
described above.  WA-PAC for Windows NT was released for general distribution in
February, 1999.  It is intended to be our premium building management and access
control product into the 21st century.

WA-PAC TRACKER - An asset tracking enhancement to WA-PAC for Windows NT.  This
system protects against asset theft from buildings secured with WA-PAC access
control security.  Assets are defined as any object or person that can be tagged
for identification with Tracker's long range proximity security tags.  Assets
may be laptop computers or other equipment, babies, or even elderly persons.
Tagged assets are associated by the system with tagged personnel and recorded as
they pass through monitoring points.  If the asset is unauthorized, an alarm is
sent to security and a record is made of the transaction.  If the asset is
authorized to be carried by the tagged person, a record is made of it's passing.
Tracker is also sold as a standalone system without WA-PAC for Windows NT.

BUILDING WATCH - A DOS based, distributed processing, access control system:
Building Watch is an access control product designed for securing commercial or
industrial facilities at low cost.  This system shares a personal computer with
other programs, thereby making it a very cost effective security system that is
easy to implement and expand.  Building Watch offers direct local access control
and remote access management over dial-up phone lines.  It also supports input
point monitoring and reporting capabilities.  Building Watch supports all
popular card technologies.  Building Watch has been phased out of the product
line and has been replaced with Building Watch for Windows.

BUILDING WATCH FOR WINDOWS - This access control system is a Windows 3.1 based
replacement for the DOS Building Watch system above.  It supports access control
in an unlimited number of buildings and operates under Windows 3.1, 95 and NT
platforms.  This product has been one of the top selling products for 1999.

DOOR WATCH - 2 Door, Stand alone, Full Featured Access Control System:  This
product is sold mainly to small, industrial and commercial users who require
only one or two doors of access control, but wish to control doors with time
zones and keep a printed record of system activity.  Door Watch supports all
popular card reader technologies.

SENTRY - Single door, stand-alone access control system, expandable to 2 doors.
Sentry was introduced in 1997 as a low end to our access control product line.
It is marketed to locksmiths due to it's simplicity and ease of installation.

The Company designs and manufactures all of its products.  The Company's
computer based products use personal computers and standard peripherals to
provide access control and building management to secured sites. These products
are acquired from a variety of third party sources.  Components are procured
from electronics distributors. Board and assembly houses manufacture and
assemble circuit boards used for the Company's products.  Final assembly, test
and shipping functions are performed by Company personnel.  The Company solicits
bids for components, subassemblies and outside assembly.  The Company has not
experienced difficulty obtaining components for its products.

(b)  Financial Information About Industry Segments

The Company has been in a single business segment for the past year:  The
manufacturing and marketing of access control and facility management systems.
All of the Company's revenue, operating profit or loss and identifiable assets
are attributable to one industry segment.

(c)  Narrative Description of Business

Y2K issues relating to products:
All listed products manufactured by the Company are currently Y2K compliant.
Products which were installed by users in the past are Y2K compliant or have a
proposed upgrade path to becoming Y2K compliant.

Description of Products

Bank ATM Access Control:  The Company has been  marketing bank ATM access
control products since 1977.   These products consisted of MSLR1, ATM III, and
ATM Access. In 1998, the Company added a customized networked product expressly
customized for Citibank sites in Greater New York City. Bank ATM access control
revenue represented approximately 13% of all Company revenue in 1999, 32% in
1998 and 30% in 1997.  The Company estimates having sold ATM access control
products to over 30,000 bank installations in the United States and abroad.

PC-PAC:  PC-PAC, a central processing access control and building management
system was introduced in 1984. PC-PAC provides access control and building
security using a personal computer.  PC-PAC controls up to 256 doors using a
variety of card reader technologies and keypads plus monitors perimeter alarm
points in secured building environments.  PC-PAC provides hard disk storage for
permanent records of all transactions, an instantaneous check of personnel in a
given area and retains a record of those cards which have been used to attempt
access to an area where the cardholder was not authorized.  Product options
include zoned anti-passback; alarm, elevator and relay control.  PC-PAC revenue
approximated 1% of all Company revenue in 1999, 1% in 1998 and 1% 1997.  The PC-
PAC system has been replaced with WA-PAC for Windows due to it's reduced
popularity due mainly to it's DOS operating system.

WA-PAC:  The Company introduced WA-PAC in 1988 as a DOS based, distributed
processing access control system which controls multiple building sites through
the use of a single host computer. WA-PAC has been the Companies premier
computer system over the past years and is generally installed in Colleges and
Universities as well as large corporate buildings.  WA-PAC supports a great
number of features and its reliable operation and reasonable pricing are the
main reasons for its success in controlling access and securing perimeters in
these buildings.  WA-PAC uses either direct or dialup telephone lines for
communications and will support any number of building sites.  Product shipments
began in 1988.  WA-PAC revenue approximated 17% in 1999, 10% of total company
revenue in 1998, and 16% in 1997.

WA-PAC for Windows NT:  The Company introduced WA-PAC for Windows NT in late
1998. In 1999, this Windows NT based product took the place of WA-PAC (DOS
version). WA-PAC for Windows NT is a networked product which will support WA-PAC
Tracker, video image badging, floor plan mapping and many other features which
were not possible with the DOS based WA-PAC system.  The main market for this
product is colleges and universities, large corporate buildings and networks of
commercial buildings and warehouses. WA-PAC for Windows NT was first released
for sale in early 1999.

Building Watch for Windows:  The Company developed and announced Building Watch
for Windows in 1997. Building Watch for Windows is an economical access control
product which controls access to 32 doors in many buildings from a single
computer which may be shared with other computer programs.  Building Watch for
Windows revenues approximated 18% of all Company revenue in 1999, 12% in 1998
and 14% in 1997.

Door Watch:  The Company announced Door Watch in December of 1992 and began
shipping the product in December of that year. Door Watch revenues approximated
1% of total Company revenue in 1999, 2% in 1998, and 1% in 1997.

The Company introduced and began selling Sentry in 1997.  Sentry was  not a
significant contributor to revenue in 1997.  In 1999, Sentry contributed 0% of
total Company revenue, and 1% in 1998.

MARKETS

The primary market for the ATM access control product line is banks with
automatic teller machine (ATM) vestibules.  The Company believes that its access
control and building management product lines are applicable to a wide variety
of commercial, government and institutional markets; i.e., military bases,
hospitals, colleges and universities, research and computer facilities, office
buildings, and office or manufacturing complexes.

RAW MATERIAL

The Company purchases components for its products from electronics distributors.
The Company designed printed circuit boards are purchased from board
manufacturers and outside assembly houses manufacture the completed printed
circuit boards. Final assembly, test and shipping as well as any customization
is performed by the Company.  The Company is not dependent upon any one firm for
components or assembly work and duel sourcing is a company policy.  The Company
solicits bids for its work and awards business based upon quality of
workmanship, price and lead time.  The Company has not experienced difficulty
obtaining parts or outside assemblers for its products.

MARKETING AND CUSTOMERS

The company sells its products through the efforts of district sales managers
who market the product through independent security dealers and locksmiths world
wide.  The Company markets its products primarily through trade shows,
advertising in selected industry journals and magazines, government supply
contracts, selected direct mailings, the Internet and supporting dealer bids and
proposals.

The Company continues to expand its base of distribution by increasing the
number of dealers authorized to sell the Company's products.  The Company sells
direct to certain large banks and government agencies. The Company's business is
not seasonal in any material respect. The Company has no dependence upon a
single customer or a few customers.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

The Company holds no patents on any of its current products.

WORKING CAPITAL ITEMS

Manufacturing cycle time approximates 1 to 2 weeks.  The Company feels that this
is not unusual for a company that uses outside contractors for manufacturing and
assembly.

The Company provides a one year warranty after a product is shipped.  Normal
payment terms are 30 days.

BACKLOG

The ending backlog was $38,589 in 1999, $54,237 in 1998, and $78,187 in 1997.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company expends monies on technical support , research and development of
new products, and the enhancement of existing products.  Such expenditures are
consistent with the Company's overall product development, maintenance and
enhancement strategies.  In 1997, a significant engineering effort was entered
into where development of new Windows based products occupied most of our
engineering effort.  This effort continued through 1998 concluding with the
release of WA-PAC for Windows and a custom ATM access control system designed
exclusively for Citicorp and in 1999 when enhancements were added to both
products.

GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS

The Company does not actively pursue government contracts, but does have a GSA
contract and sells to the government whenever it is advantageous.  Government
revenue approximated 1% of total revenue in 1999, 2% in 1998, and 3% in 1997.

None of the Company's sales under government contracts are subject to
renegotiations of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts, to the
best of the Company's knowledge.

COMPETITORS

Over 150 companies compete in the card based access control marketplace.  The
principle Company competitors include Cardkey Systems, Sensormatic,
Westinghouse, CASI-RUSCO, Corby Industries, and Northern Computers. The Company
believes its sales volume is a small fraction of the combined sales of the
Company's major competitors.

A competitor that chooses to devote substantial economic resources toward
acquiring a dominant position in the access control devices market might
seriously injure the Company's market position and jeopardize its viability, but
the product line has proven to be reliable and competitive over the years and
should survive this type of competition.  The Company believes that competition
in our marketplace is based upon reliability, price, service, and product
capability.  The Company believes that it can compete on such terms.





ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS



The nature of the Company's manufacturing operation is such that no materials
are discharged into the environment.  Under the terms of the Company's lease for
its operating facility, it is obligated for the normal maintenance and repair of
building systems.  No additional capital expenditures are anticipated by
the Company.

1983 (the "Agreement").  The Agreement provided for repayment of $100,000 of
accrued salary to Mr. Tetrick prior to April 15, 1984, (2) an increase in Mr.
Tetrick's salary from $25,000 to $50,000 a year as of the date of the
amendment, and (3) repayment of remaining accrued compensation to Mr. Tetrick at
the rate of $50,000 per year.  Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Tetrick converted
$116,000 of accrued salary owed him by the Company into 202,000 shares of Common
Stock.  On December 1, 1984, Mr. Tetrick received payment of $88,529 of
accrued salary.  Mr. Tetrick accrued his 1984 salary of $50,000. Beginning
January 1, 1985, Mr. Tetrick began drawing his annual salary on a weekly basis.

As of December 31, 1995, the Company had a note receivable from its former
Treasurer in the amount of $148,541.72 to reimburse the Company for certain
expenses incurred and to formalize various cash advances.  No payment has been
made to satisfy payment of the note since the Treasurer left the Company in
1996.  The note is receivable over ten (10) years with annual interest of 7.5%
and weekly payments of $150.  The balance is due at the end of ten years and the
loan is secured by a second mortgage on the borrower's personal residence.  As
collection of amounts outstanding on this note is questionable, a reserve has
been established for the full amount of the outstanding loan.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Synergistics, Inc.
Natick, Massachusetts


  We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Synergistics, Inc. as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards 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.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

  In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Synergistics, Inc. as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                     YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998



NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         A summary of the significant accounting policies applied by management
of the Company in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements
follows.

Nature of Operations

         Synergistics, Inc. is engaged in the manufacturing and marketing of
card access systems, which are sold to banks and other commercial customers.

Use of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principals requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Equivalents

         Cash and equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits with
commercial banks, and money market securities with initial maturities of less
than 90 days.

Inventories

         Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or
aggregate market.

Equipment

         Equipment is stated at cost.  Normal maintenance and repair costs are
expensed as incurred.  Gains and losses on sales or retirements are included in
operations.  Depreciation and amortization are provided using straight-line and
accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets (5-12 years).

Common Stock Held in Treasury

         When Common Stock held in Treasury is issued, Common Stock held in
Treasury is credited for the average cost of the issued securities.

Revenue

         The company recognizes revenue from sales at the time products are
shipped to customers.

                     YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998



NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Advertising Costs

         The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.

Sales Commissions

         The Company pays sales commissions to various agents only upon the
collection of the accounts receivable generated by the sales.  The Company
accounts for these sales commissions at the time products are shipped to
customers.

Income Taxes

         The Company accounts for income taxes using Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires
recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or
tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are
determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax
basis of assets. Tax benefits arising from the utilization of carryforward net
operating losses, investment and research and development tax credits are
valued based upon the expected future benefit to be recognized. (Refer to
Note H)

Income Per Share of Common Stock

         The weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding used
in computing income per share does not include the effect of the conversion of
the stock options as the exercise price exceeds the current market value of the
security.  (Refer to Note E)

Stock Options

         The Company accounts for its incentive stock option plans in accordance
with APB No. 25 and does not recognize an expense when options are issued with
an exercise price in excess of market.  Currently there is no public market for
this stock and estimates of future value as required by FASB 123 cannot
reasonably be determined.
