MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue for the three months period ended March 31, 2003 decreased to
$17,679 as compared to $38,041 for the corresponding period of 2002. The
decrease in revenue during the first quarter of the current fiscal year was due
to the loss of two clients. One client ceased operations and second client
decided to perform its data processing internally. The reduction was also due to
a general decrease in volume because of a severe slow down in the market
research industry. The September 11 terrorist attack in New York was the
dominant catalyst and contributor to this slow down.

Cost of sales in the three months period ended March 31, 2003 decreased by
$53,991 or 63%. The decrease in revenue forced the Registrant to institute cuts
in labor and other costs. During the first quarter costs were lowered to a
minimum required to meet anticipated demand for market research services. In
past years demand for market research services was always higher in the first
quarter of a calendar year. This year it did not materialized.

Selling and Administrative (S&A) expenses were maintained at previous
year's level.

During the three months period ending March 31, 2003 the Registrant
incurred some interest expense due to advances made to it by Data Probe, Inc. In
the past, the majority of interest income earned was recognized from Data Probe,
Inc. and it's receivable to the Registrant. (See NOTE F of "Notes to Form 10-Q"
contained in this report for additional information)

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2003 Registrant's loss from
operations was ($50,073) or ($.07) per share as compared to a loss from
operations of ($83,785) or ($0.12) per share during the corresponding period in
fiscal year 2002. Overall, the registrant is reporting a profit of $28,476, or
$.04 per share, during the three months period ending March 31, 2003 as compared
to a loss of ($73,843), or ($.10) per share, in the similar period of 2002. This
profit was due to the receipt of $80,000 from Data Probe, Inc. as Registrant's
share in a one-time payment received for relinquishing the office lease two
years earlier than its expiration date. The Registrant will be moving with

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Data Probe, inc., its parent, to a new, smaller office space at the Empire State
Building, 350 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York. Rent costs at the new office
space will be lower than Registrant's current costs.


CAPITAL EXPENDITURES.

The Registrant did not incur any capital expenditure in the first three
months of 2003.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

Working capital increased by $28,494 in the first three months of 2003 from
a deficit of $332,351 at December 31, 2002 to a deficit of $303,857 at March 31,
2003.

The Registrant receives cash deposits from clients in association with
various projects. There is no assurance that the stream of sales and revenue
from the Registrant's major clients will continue. If additional revenues cannot
be sustained and the Registrant once again realizes losses, the Registrant's
ability to continue to operate would be severely affected in the absence of
securing some type of supplemental financing, the availability of which there
can be no assurance.
