3. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that have
separate management teams and infrastructures that offer different products
and services.

In 2001, the Company has four reportable segments, Restaurant, Industrial,
Government and Vision. In previous years, the Restaurant and Industrial
segments were combined in the Transaction processing segment. The
Restaurant segment offers integrated solutions to the restaurant industry.
These offerings include industry leading hardware and software applications
utilized at the point-of-sale, back of store and corporate office. This
segment also offers customer support including field service, installation,
twenty-four hour telephone support and depot repair. The Industrial
segment, for Fortune 500 industrial companies, designs and implements
complex integrated transaction processing solutions incorporating its data
collection and management software that provide real-time connectivity with
multiple host computers, diverse legacy applications, "best-of-breed"
software and data input hardware technologies. The Government segment
designs and implements advanced technology computer software systems
primarily for military and intelligence agency applications. It provides
services for operating and maintaining certain U.S. Government-owned test
sites, and for planning, executing and evaluating experiments involving new
or advanced radar systems. The Vision segment was involved in the
manufacture and sale of image processing systems for the food-processing
industry. This segment was disposed of in 2000. Inter-segment sales and
transfers are not material.
Information  as to the  Company's  operations in these four segments is set

Item 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001
COMPARED WITH
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2000


The Company reported revenues of $27.2 million for the first quarter ended
2001, an increase of 41% from the $19.3 million reported in 2000. The Company
recorded net income of $49,000 or diluted earnings per share of $.01 for 2001.
This compares to net loss of $4.5 million or diluted loss per share of $.56 for
2000.

Product revenues were $12.2 million in 2001, an increase of 87% from the
$6.5 million recorded in 2000. This substantial increase is due to dramatically
improved sales in the Company's Restaurant business as evidenced by increased
capital spending in the restaurant markets. Sales increased domestically to
McDonald's, Tricon, Dealers and Value-Added Resellers. Internationally, product
sales grew 68% primarily due to McDonald's and various new accounts.

Customer service revenues were $7.9 million in 2001, an increase of 18%
from the $6.7 million in 2000. This increase was the result of higher
installation revenue, which is directly related to the increase in product
revenue discussed above. Additionally, field service revenue increased as a
result of new contracts and certain price increases. The Company's service
offerings include installation, twenty-four hour help desk support and various
field and on-site service options.

Contract revenues were $7.2 million in 2001, an increase of 18% when
compared to the $6.1 million recorded in the same period in 2000. This increase
is due primarily to the startup of recently awarded Navy contracts to operate
and maintain communications in support of Fleet Operations. The Company has
become a recognized leader in the conversion of military communications
facilities to contractor operations. The U.S. government is continuing to
emphasize the outsourcing of military facility operations and, management
anticipates further growth in this segment of our government business. The
increase is also attributable to a floodplain mapping contract with the New York
State Department of Environment Conservation.

Product margins were 35% for 2001 compared to 18% for the same period in
2000. This improvement is attributable to greater absorption of fixed
manufacturing costs on higher product volume and to a more favorable product
mix.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001
COMPARED WITH
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2000


Customer service margins were 20% in 2001 compared to .1% for the same
period in 2000. This margin improvement was the result of improved efficiencies
and certain price increases. The Company is beginning to realize the benefits of
its investment in its recently installed service management system.

Contract margins were 6% in 2001 virtually unchanged from the same period
in 2000. Margins on the Company's government contract business typically run
between 5% and 6%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4 million in 2001 versus
$6.5 million for the same period in 2000, a decrease of 38%. This decline was
the result of recent cost reductions made by the Company. Additionally, the
first quarter of 2000 included a charge relating to a one-time early retirement
program offered to eligible employees.

Research and development expenses were $2 million in 2001, a decrease of 3%
from the $2.1 million recorded for the same period in 2000. The Company is
maintaining its investment in restaurant products including its iN.fusion
software suite and in its manufacturing/warehouse business. Research and
development costs attributable to government contracts are included in cost of
contract revenues.

Interest expense represents interest charged on the Company's short-term
borrowing requirements from banks and from long-term debt. The average amount of
outstanding borrowings was higher during 2001 than in 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary source of liquidity has been from operations and
lines of credit with various banks. In the first quarter of 2001, the Company
generated cash flow from operating activities of $2.2 million compared to cash
used by operating activities of $4.8 million in 2000. Improved collections, a
reduction in inventory and cost cutting measures taken by the Company in the
fourth quarter of 2000 all contributed to the positive cash flow in the first
quarter of 2001. In 2000, cash flow was adversely affected by a large operating
loss, an increase of inventory, and in the timing of vendor payments.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001
COMPARED WITH
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2000


Cash used in investing activities was $464,000 in 2001 versus $430,000 in
2000. In 2001 capital expenditures were primarily for improvements to its
customer service facility in Boulder, Colorado. In addition, the Company
capitalized $313,000 of software costs. In 2000, capital expenditures were
primarily for renovation to the Company's headquarters facility. Capitalized
software costs amounted to $317,000 in 2000.

Cash used by financing activities was $488,000 in 2001 compared to cash
provided of $5.6 million in 2000. In 2001, the Company reduced its
line-of-credit borrowings by 474,000. In 2000, the Company increased its
line-of-credit borrowings by $6.2 million. In addition, the Company acquired
108,400 shares of treasury stock for $561,000.

The Company currently has line-of-credit agreements, which aggregate $18.5
million with certain banks. At March 31, 2001, $13.4 million was outstanding
under these agreements. The Company believes that it has adequate financial
resources to meet its future liquidity and capital requirements in 2001.

Other Matters

Inflation had little effect on revenues and related costs during the first
quarter of 2001. Management anticipates that margins will be maintained at
acceptable levels to minimize the effects of inflation, if any.

The Company has total interest bearing short-term debt of approximately
$13.4 million at March 31, 2001. Management believes that increases in
short-term rates could have an adverse effect on the Company's 2001 results.

Management believes that foreign currency fluctuations should not have a
significant impact on gross margins due to the low volume of business affected
by foreign currencies.
