INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
PC Connection, Inc.
Merrimack, New Hampshire

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of PC Connection, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2003, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, and the condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity for the six month period ended June 30, 2003, and the condensed statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of PC Connection, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 30, 2003 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements, and included an explanatory paragraph relating to the change in fiscal 2002 in the method of accounting for goodwill and intangible assets. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2002 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(amounts in thousands, except per share data)

Note 1-Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of PC Connection, Inc. and subsidiaries ("PCC") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Such principles were applied on a basis consistent with those of the financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 may not be indicative of the results expected for any succeeding quarter or the entire year ending Decembe r 31, 2003.

In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a final consensus on Issue No. 02-16, "Accounting by a Reseller for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor," which addresses how a reseller of a vendor's product should account for cash consideration received from a vendor. The EITF issued guidance on the following two issues: (1) cash consideration received from a vendor should be recognized as a reduction of cost of sales in the reseller's income statement, unless the consideration is a reimbursement for selling costs or payment for assets or services delivered to the vendor, and (2) performance-driven vendor rebates or refunds (e.g., minimum purchase or sales volumes) should be recognized as a reduction of cost of sales only if the payment is considered probable, and the method of allocating such payments in the financial statements should be systematic and rational based on the reseller's progress in achieving the underlying performance targets. The provisions of EIT F 02-16 were effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003. The recognition and measurement provisions of EITF 02-16 did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue on product sales is recognized at the point in time when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed and final, delivery has occurred and there is a reasonable assurance of collection of the sales proceeds. We generally obtain oral or written purchase authorizations from our customers for a specified amount of product at a specified price. Because we either (i) have a general practice of covering customer losses while products are in transit despite title transferring to the customer at the point of shipment or (ii) have FOB - destination specifically set out in our arrangements with federal agencies, delivery is deemed to have occurred at the point in time when the product is received by the customer.

We provide our customers with a limited thirty-day right of return generally limited to defective merchandise. Revenue is recognized at delivery and a reserve for sales returns is recorded. We have demonstrated the ability to make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on significant historical experience. Should such returns no longer prove estimable, we believe that the impact on our financials would not necessarily be significant since the return privilege expires 30 days after shipment.

All amounts billed to a customer in a sale transaction related to shipping and handling, if any, represent revenues earned for the goods provided and have been classified as "net sales." Costs related to such shipping and handling billings are classified as "cost of sales."

Note 1-Basis of Presentation - Cont'd.

Restricted Cash

In connection with the acquisition of MoreDirect, Inc. (see Note 6 - Acquisition of MoreDirect, Inc.), a $10,000 cash escrow was established to fund a portion of the contingent consideration. $5,000 of these escrowed funds were used in the first quarter of 2003 to satisfy a portion of the earn-out obligation payable by PC Connection.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets subject to amortization, consisting of customer lists were $2,380 and $2,556 at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (net of accumulated amortization of $411 and $264, respectively). Intangible assets not subject to amortization are as follows:


	June 30, 2003			December 31, 2002

Goodwill	$	33,704	(1)	$	33,704	⁽¹⁾
Trademarks		1,190			1,190

^{(1) Amortization of goodwill ceased with the adoption of SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002.
For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, we recorded amortization expense of $176 and $0, respectively.
We have designated January 1 of each year as the date we intend to perform our annual impairment tests relative to goodwill. This test was completed in the first quarter of 2003 and no impairment was recorded.
The estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years and thereafter is as follows:}

For the Year Ended December 31

2003	$	177	(A)
2004		353
2005		353
2006		353
2007		353
2008 and thereafter		791

(A) Represents estimated amortization expense for the six months ending December 31, 2003.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make use of certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and revisions to estimates are included in our results for the period in which the actual amounts become known.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation expense associated with awards of stock options to employees and directors is measured using the intrinsic value method. We have not recorded compensation expense under the intrinsic value method for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

-7-

Note 1-Basis of Presentation - Cont'd.

Had we recorded compensation expense using the fair value method under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", pro forma net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share for the periods indicated would have been as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

June 30, (amounts in thousands, except per share data)		2003		2002		2003		2002


Net income (loss), as reported	$	1,403	$	277	$	2,978	$	(1,823)
Compensation expense, under SFAS No. 123		1,264		755		2,027		1,510
Net income (loss), under SFAS No. 123		639		(218)		1,745		(2,814)
Basic net income (loss) per share, as reported		.06		.01		.12		(.07)
Basic net income (loss) per share, under SFAS No. 123		.03		(.01)		.07		(.11)
Diluted net income (loss) per share, as reported		.06		.01		.12		(.07)
Diluted net income (loss) per share, under SFAS No. 123		.03		(.01)		.07		(.11)

The Black-Scholes model was used to value options granted subsequent to the initial public offering. For the period ended June 30, 2003, a volatility factor of 96.8%, estimated option lives of four years, and a risk-free interest rate of 2.4% was used. For the period ended June 30, 2002, a volatility factor of 125.3%, estimated option lives of four years, and a risk-free interest rate of 2.8% was used. We believe that the assumptions used and the models applied to value the awards yield a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the grants made under the circumstances, given the alternatives under SFAS No. 123.

Note 2-Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental shares attributed to options outstanding to purchase common stock, if dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share:

Note 2-Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Cont'd.

The following unexercised stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 because the exercise prices of these options were generally greater than the average market price of common shares during the respective periods:


	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended

June 30, (amounts in thousands)	2003	2002	2003	2002


Anti-dilutive stock options	1,551	2,258	1,722	2,908

Note 3-Reporting Comprehensive Income

We have no other comprehensive income in any of the periods presented. Accordingly, a separate statement of comprehensive income is not presented.

Note 4-Segment and Related Disclosures

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," requires that public companies report profits and losses and certain other information on its "reportable operating segments" in its annual and interim financial statements.

We currently operate in three reportable operating segments - the "Public Sector" segment, which contains federal, state and local governmental organizations, and educational institutions; the "SMB" segment, which contains small- and medium-sized businesses, as well as consumers; and the "Large Corporate Accounts" segment which serves medium-to-large corporations. This latter segment came into existence in April 2002, when we acquired MoreDirect, Inc. Accordingly, this segment's operating results are included in our consolidated financial statements only for periods after April 5, 2002.

Segment information applicable to the Company's reportable operating segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 is shown below:

Substantially all of our net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were made to customers located in the United States. Shipments to customers located in foreign countries aggregated less than 2% in those respective periods. All of our assets at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were located in the United States. Our primary target customers are small- to medium-sized businesses ("SMBs") comprised of 20 to 1,000 employees, federal, state and local governmental agencies, educational institutions, and medium-to-large corporate accounts. Except for the federal government, no single customer accounted for more than 4% of total net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Net sales to the federal government accounted for $54.0 million, or 8.9% of total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003, and $50.1 million, or 9.5% of total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Note 5 - Restructuring Costs and Other Special Charges

We recorded $397 and $168 in workforce reduction charges in the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

A rollforward of restructuring reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2003 is shown below. The balance at December 31, 2002 originally arose as a result of workforce reductions in 2001 and 2002.

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and replaces Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred, rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The restructuring activities undertaken by us prior to the issuance of this statement have been appropriately accounted for under EITF 94-3.

Note 6 - Acquisition of MoreDirect, Inc.

On April 5, 2002, we completed the acquisition of MoreDirect, Inc. (MoreDirect). Our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 details this transaction. We paid contingent consideration of $10,800 to the sole shareholder of MoreDirect in early 2003. This amount had been accrued for as of December 31, 2002. The shareholder continues to be eligible to earn additional consideration based on earnings before income tax targets over the next two years. The maximum incremental payments to be made under this arrangement are approximately $56,300.

The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method, and accordingly, MoreDirect's results of operations are included in our consolidated financial statements only for periods after April 5, 2002.

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the impact of changes in market demand and the overall level of economic activity, or in the level of business investment in information technology products, competitive products and pricing, product availability and market acceptance, new products, fluctuations in operating results and other risks detailed under the caption, "Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition" set forth below. All statements, trends, analyses and other information contained in this report relative to trends in net sales, gross margin and anticipated expense levels, as well as other statements, including words such as "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," and "intend" and other similar expressions, constitute forward-looking statements. These forward - -looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or expressed in such statements. More specifically, the statements in this report concerning our outlook for the balance of 2003 and the statements concerning our gross margin percentage and selling and administrative costs and other statements of a non-historical basis are forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties include the ability to realize market demand for and competitive pricing pressures on the products and services marketed by us, the continued acceptance of our distribution channel by vendors and customers, continuation of key vendor relationships and support programs and our ability to hire and retain qualified sales account managers and other essential personnel. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Readers, however, should carefully review the factors set forth in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC.

General

PC Connection was founded in 1982 as a mail-order business offering a broad range of software and accessories for IBM and IBM-compatible personal computers. The founders' goal was to provide consumers with superior service and high quality branded products at competitive prices. Currently, we offer a wide range of information technology products and services - including computer systems, software and peripheral equipment, networking communications and other products and accessories. We operate through three primary business segments (a) consumers and small- to medium-sized businesses through our PC Connection Sales subsidiaries, (b) federal, state and local government and educational institutions through our GovConnection subsidiary and (c) large corporate accounts through our MoreDirect, Inc. subsidiary. We generate sales through (i) outbound telemarketing and field sales by account managers focused on the business, education and government markets, (ii) inbound calls from customers responding to our catalogs and other advertising and (iii) our Internet Web sites.

The weakness in demand for information technology products experienced by us in 2002 continued through the first half of 2003 resulting in overall conservative buying patterns by customers, order deferrals by customers, and longer sales cycles.

Application of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The consolidated financial statements of PC Connection are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which we believe are the most critical to aid investors in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:

Revenue Recognition

recorded. We have demonstrated the ability to make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on significant historical experience. Should such returns no longer prove estimable, we believe that the impact on our financials would not necessarily be significant since the return privilege expires 30 days after shipment.

Accounts Receivable

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon payment history and customers' current credit worthiness. Our allowance is generally computed by (1) applying specific percentage reserves on accounts that are past due; and (2) specifically reserving for customers known to be in financial difficulty. Therefore, if the financial condition of certain of our customers were to deteriorate, or if we noted there was a lengthening of the timing of the settlement of receivables that was symptomatic of a general deterioration in the ability of our customers to pay, we would have to increase our allowance for doubtful accounts. This would negatively impact our earnings and our cash flows.

In addition to accounts receivable from customers, we record receivables from our vendors/suppliers for cooperative advertising, price protection, supplier reimbursements, rebates and other similar arrangements. A portion of such receivables is estimated based on information available from our vendors at discrete points in time. While such estimates have historically approximated actual cash received, an unanticipated change in a promotional program could give rise to a reduction in the receivable. This could negatively impact our earnings and our cash flows.

Considerable judgment is used in assessing the ultimate realization of customer receivables and vendor/supplier receivables, including reviewing the financial stability of a customer, vendor information and gauging current market conditions. If our evaluations are incorrect, we may incur future charges to our income statement.

Inventories - Merchandise

Inventories (all finished goods) consisting of software packages, computer systems and peripheral equipment are stated at cost (determined under the first-in, first-out method) or market, whichever is lower. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly, and provisions are made for obsolete, slow moving and nonsalable inventory, based primarily on management's forecast of customer demand for those products in inventory. The PC industry is characterized by rapid technological change and new product development that could result in increased obsolescence of inventory on hand. Increased obsolescence or decreased customer demand beyond management's expectations could require additional provisions. This could negatively impact our earnings and our cash flows. Our obsolescence charges have historically approximated $5 million per annum. There have been no unusual charges precipitated by specific technological or forecast issues.

Value of Long-Lived Assets, Including Intangibles

We carry a variety of long-lived assets on our balance sheet. These are all currently classified as held for use. These include property and equipment, identifiable intangibles and goodwill. An impairment review is undertaken on (1) an annual basis for assets such as goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets; and (2) on an event-driven basis for all long-lived assets (including indefinite lived intangible assets and goodwill) when facts and circumstances suggest that cash flows emanating from such assets

may be diminished. We may review the carrying value of all these assets based partly on our projections of anticipated cash flows - projections which are, in part, dependent upon anticipated market conditions and operational performance. Any impairment charge that is recorded negatively impacts our earnings. Cash flows are generally not impacted.

Over the last several years, we have incurred no significant impairment charges. While we believe that our future estimates are reasonable, different assumptions regarding items such as future cash flows and the volatility inherent in markets which we serve could materially affect our valuations and result in impairment charges against the carrying value of those assets.

Employee Compensation Benefits

Our employee compensation model has several elements that we would consider variable. These include our obligation to our employees for health care. We have selected a plan that results in our being self-insured up to certain stop-loss limits. Accordingly, we have to estimate the amount of health care claims outstanding at a given point in time. These estimates are based on historical experience and could be subject to change. Such change could negatively impact both our earnings and our cash flows.

We also provide stock option grants to our employees. In general, such grants have been made at the current fair value of our stock and accordingly, given that we account for option awards under APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," no compensation charge has been recorded. In previous years, most specifically those years prior to our initial public offering, there was a difference between the strike price of the option and the then current fair value of the stock. This difference resulted in a fixed and determinable compensation charge. We have not modified option grants in a manner that would cause either re-measurement of the awards or the commencement of variable accounting.

We have also engaged in workforce reduction actions in each of the last two years. These actions included formula driven termination benefits as well as contractually determined severance arrangements. These benefits were or are being paid relatively quickly and have not been subject to change. We do not foresee a circumstance where there could be significant variability in our workforce reduction estimates. However, if we did experience significant variability, such change could negatively impact our cash flows and results of operations.

Sales of enterprise server and networking products (included in the above product mix) were 22.2% and 23.0% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively, and 22.6% and 22.1% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively.

Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2002

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased to $321.6 million from $291.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002.

*	Net sales for our small- and medium-sized business (SMB) segment increased by 7.5% to $186.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $173.6 million for the comparable period in 2002. SMB net sales increased sequentially by $7.9 million, or 4.4%, over the three months ended March 31, 2003. Such increases were attributable to increased sales productivity per sales representative and increased sales from our Internet Business Account Program. Sales productivity on an annualized basis for our SMB segment for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased by 10.9% over the comparable period in 2002 to $2.1 million per sales representative.

*	Net sales for our Public Sector segment, which sells to federal, state and local government organizations and educational institutions, increased by $11.3 million, or 17.8%, to $75.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 over the comparable period in 2002. Sales to the federal government increased by 19.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from the comparable period of 2002 and increased sequentially by 40.0% over the three months ended March 31, 2003. Sales to state, local and education customers for the second quarter of 2003, increased by 16.7% over the comparable period in 2002 and increased sequentially by 44.5% over the three months ended March 31, 2003. The substantial and comparative increases can be attributed to increased sales productivity per sales representative. Sales productivity on an annualized basis for our Public Sector segment for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased 13.6% over the comparable period in 2002 to $2.6 million per sa les representative.

Sales to large account customers by our MoreDirect subsidiary were $60.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $53.8 million for the comparable period in 2002. We purchased MoreDirect on April 5, 2002, and accordingly, MoreDirect's net sales are included in our consolidated financial statements only for the periods after April 5, 2002.

Notebooks & PDAs continued to be our largest product category, accounting for 20.6% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 17.3% of the comparable period in 2002. Desktop and server computer systems accounted for 14.1% of net sales in the second quarter of 2003 compared to 14.8% for the comparable period in 2002. Software product sales were 9.4% for the second quarter of 2003, down from 13.9% for the comparable period in 2002, primarily due to fewer sales of upgrades of Microsoft software.

Net sales of enterprise server and networking products increased 6.9% to $71.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $66.9 million for the comparable period in 2002. We believe that these product categories will eventually grow substantially as our customers further upgrade their network and communication infrastructure. Enterprise server and networking products represented 22.2% of overall net sales for the second quarter in 2003, down from 23.0% of net sales for the comparable period in 2002. If economic conditions do not improve in the near term, the anticipated sales growth of these types of products will not likely occur.

Average order size decreased 1.5%, to $1,110 for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $1,127 in the second quarter of 2002. Average order size increased sequentially by 4.9% in the second quarter due to the seasonal increase in the average order size of sales to our federal government customers. The total number of orders received for the quarter increased 3.6%, compared to the first quarter of 2003, and increased 10.3% year-over-year, compared to the 10.4% year-over-year increase in total net sales dollars.

Gross profit increased $1.7 million to $33.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $31.3 million for the comparable period in 2002. The increase in gross profit dollars was attributable to the changes in net sales described above, and greater rebates from vendor support programs. Gross profit margin decreased from 10.8% in the second quarter 2002 to 10.3% in the second quarter 2003 as a result of competitive pricing pressures and a free freight promotion for Internet sales that we undertook in the second quarter of 2003. Generally pricing in the computer and related products market is very aggressive, and we intend to maintain prices at competitive levels. Sales to our SMB and Large Corporate Account customers generally carry higher gross margins than our sales to Public Sector customers. Additionally, sales of enterprise server and networking products generally carry higher gross margins than sales of desktops and notebook computers. Our gross margin is influen ced by, among other things, industry pricing, customer segment and relative product mix and may vary based upon vendor support programs, product mix, pricing strategies, market conditions and other factors.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.6 million, or 2.0%, to $30.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $30.6 million for the second quarter in 2002 due to our continued cost control initiatives. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A), as a percentage of sales, were 9.3% of net sales in the second quarter of 2003, compared to 10.5% in the comparable period in 2002. While we continue to focus on controlling discretionary expenditures, we expect that our SG&A may vary depending on changes in sales volume, as well as the levels of continued investments in key growth initiatives such as hiring more outbound sales account managers, improving marketing programs, and improving our Internet Web technology to support our sales organization.

Restructuring costs and other special charges of $0.4 million and $0.1 million were incurred for staff reductions for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. A rollforward of the spending on these restructuring actions is provided in the footnotes to our quarterly financial statements.

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and replaces Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred, rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The restructuring activities undertaken by us prior to the issuance of this statement have been appropriately accounted for under EITF 94-3. The nature of our activities were such that severan ce recorded under SFAS No. 146 was consistent with that previously recorded under EITF 94-3.

Income from operations increased $1.9 million, or 316.7%, to $2.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, from $0.6 million for the comparable period in 2002. Income from operations as a percentage of sales increased to 0.8% in the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 0.2% for the comparable period in 2002 for the reasons discussed above.

Interest expense decreased $0.02 million, or 6.6%, to $0.28 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $0.3 million for the comparable quarter in 2002. This decrease in interest expense was attributed to lower average borrowings in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002. These borrowings continue to be minimal as our average outstanding borrowings for the quarter were approximately $0.8 million. There were no borrowings outstanding at the end of either quarter.

Other, net, which is essentially comprised of interest income was $0.05 million and $0.1 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease was due to lower average cash balances and marketable securities as well as overall lower interest rates compared to the same period in 2002.

Income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were $0.9 million compared to $0.2 million for the comparable quarter in 2002. The effective tax rate was 40% and 38% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The effective tax rate increased slightly in 2003 due to anticipated state income allocations differing in each fiscal year estimate.

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 increased $1.1 million, or 366.7%, to net income of $1.4 million from net income of $0.3 million for the comparable quarter in 2002, as a result of the increase in income from operations.

Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2002

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased to $605.1 million from $528.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

*	Net sales for our small- and medium-sized business (SMB) segment increased by 1.1% to $365.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $361.3 million for the comparable period in 2002.

*	Net sales for our Public Sector segment, which sells to federal, state and local government organizations and educational institutions, increased $14.5 million, or 12.8%, to $127.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 over the comparable period in 2002. Sales to the federal government increased by 7.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the comparable period of 2002. Sales to state, local and education customers for the six months ended June 30, 2003, increased by 16.9% over the comparable period in 2002.

*	Sales to large account customers by our MoreDirect subsidiary were $112.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $53.8 million for the comparable period in 2002. We purchased MoreDirect on April 5, 2002, and accordingly, MoreDirect's net sales are included in our consolidated financial statements only for the periods after April 5, 2002.

Notebooks & PDAs continued to be our largest product category, accounting for 19.9% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 17.3% of the comparable period in 2002. Desktop and server computer systems accounted for 14.4% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 14.7% for the comparable period in 2002. Software product sales were 10.2% for the first six months of 2003, down from 14.0% for the comparable period in 2002.

Net sales of enterprise server and networking products increased 17.3% to $137.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $116.8 million for the comparable period in 2002. We believe that these product categories will eventually grow substantially as our customers further upgrade their network and communication infrastructure. Enterprise server and networking products represented 22.6% of overall net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 up from 22.1% of net sales for the comparable period in 2002. If economic conditions do not improve in the near term, the anticipated sales growth of these types of products will not likely occur.

Gross profit increased $9.1 million to $65.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $56.3 million for the comparable period in 2002. The increase in gross profit dollars was attributable to the changes in net sales described above, together with an increase in gross profit margin. Gross profit margin increased to 10.8% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 from 10.7% in the comparable period of 2002 due to greater rebates from vendor support programs. Generally, pricing in the computer and related products market is very aggressive, and we intend to maintain prices at competitive levels. Sales to our SMB and Large Corporate Account customers generally carry higher gross margins than our sales to Public Sector customers. Additionally, sales of enterprise server and networking products generally carry higher gross margins than sales of desktops and notebook computers. Our gross margin is influenced by, among other things, industry pricing, customer segment and relative product mix and may vary based upon vendor support programs, product mix, pricing strategies, market conditions and other factors.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.6 million, or 2.8%, to $59.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $58.1 million for comparable period in 2002 due to the acquisition of MoreDirect. MoreDirect's selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) accounted for $6.2 million for the first six months of 2003, or 5.5% of MoreDirect's sales. SG&A, as a percentage of sales, were 9.9% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to 11.0% in the comparable period in 2002. While we continue to focus on controlling discretionary expenditures, we expect that our SG&A may vary depending on changes in sales volume, as well as the levels of continued investments in key growth initiatives such as hiring more outbound sales account managers, improving marketing programs, and improving our Internet Web technology to support our sales organization.

Restructuring costs and other special charges decreased $0.5 million, or 55.6% to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $0.9 million for the comparable period in 2002. We took a $0.4 million charge in the second quarter of 2003 for staff reductions. On March 15, 2002, we announced that we had settled litigation commenced by Microsoft Corporation involving alleged trademark and copyright infringement. While denying the allegations, we recorded a $0.8 million charge in settlement costs and legal fees related to this matter. We also took a $0.1 million charge related to staff reductions in the six months ended June 30, 2002.

A rollforward of restructuring reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2003 is shown below. These reserves originally arose as a result of workforce reduction actions in prior years.

	Workforce Reductions

Balance December 31, 2002	$	208
Charges		397
Cash payments		(198)

Liabilities at June 30, 2003	$	407

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and replaces Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred, rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The restructuring activities undertaken by us prior to the issuance of this statement have been appropriately accounted for under EITF 94-3. The nature of our activities were such that se verance recorded under SFAS No. 146 was consistent with that previously recorded under EITF 94-3.

Income (loss) from operations increased $8.1 million, or 300.0%, to income from operations of $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to a loss from operations of $(2.7) million for the comparable period in 2002. Income from operations as a percentage of sales increased to 0.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2003 from a loss of operations of (0.5)% for the comparable period in 2002 for the reasons discussed above.

Interest expense increased $0.04 million, or 7.4%, to $0.58 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $0.54 million for the comparable quarter in 2002. This increase in interest expense was attributed to higher average borrowings in the first half of 2003 as compared to the comparable period of 2002. These borrowings continue to be minimal as our average outstanding borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $2.2 million. There were no borrowings outstanding at the end of either period.

Other, net, which is essentially comprised of interest income was $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease was due to lower average cash balances and marketable securities as well as overall lower interest rates compared to the same period in 2002.

Income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2003 consisted of a $1.9 million tax provision compared to a $1.1 million tax credit for the comparable quarter in 2002. The effective tax rate was 39% and 38% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The effective tax rate increased slightly in 2003 due to anticipated state income allocations differing in each fiscal year estimate.

Net income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $4.8 million, or 266.7%, to net income of $3.0 million from net loss of $(1.8) million for the comparable period in 2002, as a result of the increase in income from operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically financed our operations and capital expenditures through cash flow from operations and bank borrowings. We believe that funds generated from operations, together with available credit under our bank line of credit, will be sufficient to finance our working capital and capital expenditure requirements at least through the next twelve months. Our ability to continue funding our planned growth is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to obtain additional funds through equity or debt financing, or from other sources of financing, as may be required. If demand for information technology products continues to decline, our cash flows from operations may be substantially reduced.

At June 30, 2003, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.4 million and working capital of $97.2 million. At December 31, 2002, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.8 million and working capital of $91.3 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, as compared to $27.1 million provided by operating activities in the comparable period in 2002. The primary factors historically affecting cash flows from operations are our net income and changes in the levels of accounts receivable, inventories, and accounts payable.

At June 30, 2003, we had $90.3 million in outstanding accounts payable. Such accounts are generally paid within 30 days of incurrence and will be financed by cash flows from operations or, if necessary, short-term borrowings under the line of credit. This amount includes $10.2 million payable to two financial institutions under security agreements to facilitate the purchase of inventory. We believe we will be able to meet our obligations under our accounts payable with cash flows from operations and our existing line of credit.

Capital expenditures were $1.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $3.4 million in the comparable period in 2002. The majority of the capital expenditures for the respective 2003 and 2002 periods relate to computer hardware and software purchases for our information systems. Total capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2003 are estimated to be $3.6 million and we anticipate funding these capital expenditures from cash flows from operations.

We currently have a $45 million credit facility secured by substantially all of our business assets. Amounts outstanding under this facility bear interest at the prime rate (4.0% at June 30, 2003). The credit facility includes various customary financial and operating covenants, minimum net worth and maximum funded debt ratio requirements, including restrictions on the payment of dividends, none of which we believe significantly restricts our operations. The maximum allowable funded debt ratio under the agreement is 2.0 to 1.0; our actual funded debt ratio at June 30, 2003 was only 0.03 to 1.0. Funded debt ratio is defined as the ratio of average outstanding advances under the facility to EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization). Borrowing availability under the agreement is further limited to twice the amount of EBITDA for the trailing four quarters; such availability was $48.0 million at June 30, 2003. No borrowings were outstanding under this cred it facility at June 30, 2003. The credit facility matures on June 30, 2004, at which time amounts outstanding become due.

The merger agreement with MoreDirect contemplates an earn-out period of three years following the closing whereby if MoreDirect maintains certain earnings before income tax, or EBIT, levels, additional payments will be made to MoreDirect's shareholder. Under the merger agreement, earn-out payments are tied to EBIT levels targeted to grow at a 15% rate per year. The maximum payments we will make under the earn-out provisions of the merger agreement are $67.1 million, assuming MoreDirect maintains 200% of targeted EBIT levels for all three years. If MoreDirect maintains less than 60% of targeted EBIT levels for all three years, no payment would be required under the earn-out provisions of the merger agreement. At any time during the earn-out period, we may "buy-out" the remaining earn-out payments for amounts which vary during the term of the earn-out. We accrued a liability to MoreDirect's shareholder for $10.8 million in earn-out consideration for the year ended December 31, 2002, which wa s paid in 2003. We also escrowed $10.0 million at closing to fund a portion of these contingent payments, of which $5.0 million was used to satisfy a portion of the liability paid by PC Connection in the first quarter of 2003. We believe we will be able to meet our obligations to MoreDirect and its shareholder under the merger agreement.

We have disclosed significant related party transactions and our future commitments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. There have been no changes in those disclosures since year-end.

Recently Adopted Financial Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"), which requires that, for guarantees within the scope of FIN 45 issued or amended after December 31, 2002, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee be recognized. FIN 45 also requires additional disclosures in financial statements for periods ending after December 15, 2002. The recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 45 did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

Inflation

We have historically offset any inflation in operating costs by a combination of increased productivity and price increases, where appropriate. We do not expect inflation to have a significant impact on our business in the future.

Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition

Our future results and financial condition are dependent on our ability to continue to successfully market, sell and distribute information technology products and services, including computers, hardware and software. Inherent in this process are a number of factors that we must successfully manage in order to achieve a favorable financial condition and favorable operating results. Potential risks and uncertainties that could affect our future financial condition and operating results include, without limitation, the following factors:

There has been a general decrease in demand throughout the industry for the products we sell.

The general decline in the economy over the past two years has resulted in a decrease in demand for personal computer products throughout the industry, despite the modest and recent increase in personal computer sales. This decrease adversely affected our sales and results of operations in 2002 and may continue to adversely affect our sales and results of operations for the balance of 2003. If our net sales do not increase in proportion to our operating expenses or if we experience a decrease in net sales for an extended period of time, there would be a material adverse effect on our results of operations in future periods.

We may also experience quarterly fluctuations and seasonality which could impact our business.

Several factors have caused our sales and results of operations to fluctuate and we expect these fluctuations to continue on a quarterly basis. Causes of these fluctuations include:

*	changes in the overall level of economic activity;
*	changes in the level of business investment in information technology products;
*	the condition of the personal computer industry in general;
*	shifts in customer demand for hardware and software products;
*	industry shipments of new products or upgrades;
*	the timing of new merchandise and catalog offerings;
*	fluctuations in response rates;
*	fluctuations in postage, paper, shipping and printing costs and in merchandise returns;
*	adverse weather conditions that affect response, distribution or shipping;
*	shifts in the timing of holidays;
*	changes in our product offerings;
*	changes in consumer demand for information technology products; and
*	changes in vendor distribution of products.

We base our operating expenditures on sales forecasts. If revenues do not meet expectations in any given quarter, our operating results could suffer.

In addition, customer response rates for our catalogs and other marketing vehicles are subject to variations. The first and last quarters of the year generally have higher response rates while the two middle quarters typically have lower response rates.

Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition - Cont'd.

We face many competitive risks.

The direct marketing industry and the computer products retail business, in particular, are highly competitive. We compete with consumer electronics and computer retail stores, including superstores. We also compete with other direct marketers of hardware and software and computer related products, including an increasing number of Internet retailers. Certain hardware and software vendors are selling their products directly through their own catalogs and over the Internet or have entered into agreements with other direct marketers. We compete not only for customers, but also for co-op advertising support from personal computer product manufacturers. Some of our competitors have greater financial and marketing resources and larger catalog circulations and customer bases and other resources than we do. In addition, some of our competitors offer a wider range of products and services than we do and may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities, technologies and cust omer requirements. Many current and potential competitors also have greater name recognition, engage in more extensive promotional activities and adopt more aggressive pricing policies than us. We expect competition to increase as retailers and direct marketers who have not traditionally sold computers and related products enter the industry and as certain hardware and software vendors begin selling their products through other direct marketers.

We cannot assure you that we can continue to compete effectively against our current or future competitors. In addition, price is an important competitive factor in the personal computer hardware and software market and we cannot assure you that we will not face increased price competition. If we encounter new competition or fail to compete effectively against our competitors, our business may be harmed.

In addition, product resellers and direct marketers are combining operations or acquiring or merging with other resellers and direct marketers to increase efficiency. Moreover, current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to enhance their products and services. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and acquire significant market share.

The methods of distributing personal computers and related products are changing and such changes may negatively impact us and our business.

The manner in which personal computers and related products are distributed and sold is changing, and new methods of distribution and sale, such as online shopping services, have emerged. Hardware and software manufacturers have sold, and may intensify their efforts to sell, their products directly to end users. From time to time, certain manufacturers have instituted programs for the direct sales of large order quantities of hardware and software to certain major corporate accounts. These types of programs may continue to be developed and used by various manufacturers. Some of our vendors, including Apple, HP, and IBM, currently sell some of their products directly to end users and have stated their intentions to increase the level of such direct sales. In addition, manufacturers may attempt to increase the volume of software products distributed electronically to end users. An increase in the volume of products sold through or used by consumers of any of these competitive programs or distributed electronically to end users could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are exposed to inventory obsolescence due to the rapid technological changes occurring in the personal computer industry.

The market for personal computer products is characterized by rapid technological change and the frequent introduction of new products and product enhancements. Our success depends in large part on our ability to identify and market products that meet the needs of customers in that marketplace. In order to satisfy customer demand and to obtain favorable purchasing discounts, we have and may continue to carry increased inventory levels of certain products. By so doing, we are subject to the increased risk of inventory obsolescence. Also, in order to implement our business strategy, we intend to continue, among other things, to place larger than typical inventory stocking orders, and increase our participation in first-to-market purchase opportunities. We may also participate in end-of-life-cycle purchase opportunities and market products on a private-label basis, which would increase the risk of inventory obsolescence. In addition, we sometimes acquire special purchase products withou t return privileges. There can be no assurance that we will be able to avoid losses related to obsolete inventory. In addition, manufacturers are limiting return rights and are also taking steps to reduce their inventory exposure by supporting "build to order" programs authorizing distributors and resellers to assemble computer hardware under the manufacturers' brands. These trends reduce the costs to manufacturers and shift the burden of inventory risk to resellers like us which could negatively impact our business.

We acquire products for resale from a limited number of vendors; the loss of any one of these vendors could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We acquire products for resale both directly from manufacturers and indirectly through distributors and other sources. The five vendors supplying the greatest amount of goods to us constituted 65% and 66% of our total product purchases in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Among these five vendors, purchases from Ingram Micro, Inc. represented 23% and 28% of our total product purchases in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Purchases from Tech Data Corporation comprised 15% of our total product purchases in both the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Effective May 3, 2002, Hewlett-Packard Company (HP) completed its acquisition of Compaq Computer Corporation. Had this acquisition been completed at the beginning of the periods presented, our purchases made directly from HP, on a pro forma basis, would have constituted 16% and 14% of our total product purchases in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. No other vendor supplied more than 10% of our total product purchases in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. If we were unable to acquire products from Ingram, Tech Data or HP, we could experience a short-term disruption in the availability of products and such disruption could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.

Substantially all of our contracts and arrangements with our vendors that supply significant quantities of products are terminable by such vendors or us without notice or upon short notice. Most of our product vendors provide us with trade credit, of which the net amount outstanding at June 30, 2003 was $90.3 million. Termination, interruption or contraction of relationships with our vendors, including a reduction in the level of trade credit provided to us, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Some product manufacturers either do not permit us to sell the full line of their products or limit the number of product units available to direct marketers such as us. An element of our business strategy is to continue to increase our participation in first-to-market purchase opportunities. The availability of certain desired products, especially in the direct marketing channel, has been constrained in the past. We could experience a material adverse effect to our business if we are unable to source first-to-market purchase or similar opportunities, or if we face the reemergence of significant availability constraints.

We may experience a reduction in the incentive programs offered to us by our vendors.

Some product manufacturers and distributors provide us with incentives such as supplier reimbursements, payment discounts, price protection, rebates and other similar arrangements. The increasingly competitive computer hardware market has already resulted in the following:

*	reduction or elimination of some of these incentive programs;
*	more restrictive price protection and other terms; and
*	reduced advertising allowances and incentives, in some cases.

Many product suppliers provide us with co-op advertising support and in exchange we feature their products in our catalogs. This support significantly defrays our catalog production expense. In the past, we have experienced a decrease in the level of co-op advertising support available to us from certain manufacturers. The level of co-op advertising support we receive from some manufacturers may further decline in the future. Such a decline could increase our selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales and have a material adverse effect on our cash flows.

We have experienced rapid growth in recent years followed by a decline in sales in 2002 and 2001, and there is no assurance that we will be able to regain such growth.

Our net sales grew from $749.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1998 to $1.44 billion for the year ended December 31, 2000. In the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, our net sales declined to $1.19 billion. We believe we would have experienced a greater decline in our net sales for 2002 if it had not been for our acquisition of MoreDirect. Our growth in previous years placed increasing demands on our administrative, operational, financial and other resources. Our staffing levels and operating expenses increased substantially in recent years due to our sales forecasts. In 2001 and 2002, we engaged in workforce reductions due to the decline in our net sales during those periods. If our revenues continue to decline, we may not be able to reduce our staffing levels and operating expenses in a timely manner to meet our needs. Moreover, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to regain rapid growth in the near future.

We rely on key government contracts, the loss of which could harm our financial condition.

We are a party to several significant contracts with state and federal government agencies. Sales to state and federal government agencies, represented 21% of our net sales in 2002 and 23% of our net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Our sales to state and federal government agencies include sales to educational institutions. We expect that our sales to state and federal government agencies will increase as a percentage of our consolidated revenues for the foreseeable future. Our current arrangements with these government agencies allow them to cancel orders with little or no notice and do not require them to purchase products from us in the future. Moreover, any and all orders relating to the federal government may be subject to renegotiation of profits or termination at the election of the federal government. The loss of one or more of these significant contracts with state and federal government agencies could negatively affect our results of operations and financial con dition.

We face and will continue to face significant price competition.

Generally, pricing is very aggressive in the personal computer industry and we expect pricing pressures to continue. An increase in price competition could result in a reduction of our profit margins. There can be no assurance that we will be able to offset the effects of price reductions with an increase in the number of customers, higher sales, cost reductions or otherwise. Also, our sales of personal computer hardware products are generally producing lower profit margins than those associated with software products. Such pricing pressures could result in an erosion of our market share, reduced sales and reduced operating margins, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We could experience system failures which would interfere with our ability to process orders.

We depend on the accuracy and proper use of our management information systems including our telephone system. Many of our key functions depend on the quality and effective utilization of the information generated by our management information systems, including:

*	our ability to manage inventory and accounts receivable collection;
*	our ability to purchase, sell and ship products efficiently and on a timely basis; and
*	our ability to maintain operations.

Interruptions could result from natural disasters as well as power loss, telecommunications failure and similar events.

Our management information systems require continual upgrades to most effectively manage our operations and customer database. Although we maintain some redundant systems, with full data backup, a substantial interruption in management information systems or in telephone communication systems would substantially hinder our ability to process customer orders and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We rely on the continued development of electronic commerce and Internet infrastructure development.

We have had an increasing amount of sales made over the Internet in part because of the growing use and acceptance of the Internet by end-users. No one can be certain that acceptance and use of the Internet will continue to develop or that a sufficiently broad base of consumers will adopt and continue to use the Internet and other online services as a medium of commerce. Sales of computer products over the Internet do not currently represent a significant portion of overall computer product sales. Growth of our Internet sales is dependent on potential customers using the Internet in addition to traditional means of commerce to purchase products. We cannot accurately predict the rate at which they will do so.

Our success in growing our Internet business will depend in large part upon the development of an infrastructure for providing Internet access and services. If the number of Internet users or their use of Internet resources continues to grow rapidly, such growth may overwhelm the existing Internet infrastructure. Our ability to increase the speed with which we provide services to customers and to increase the scope of such services ultimately is limited by and reliant upon the speed and reliability of the networks operated by third parties and these networks may not continue to be developed.

We depend heavily on third party shippers to deliver our products to customers.

We ship approximately 70% of our products to customers by Airborne Freight Corporation D/B/A "Airborne Express", with the remainder being shipped by United Parcel Service of America, Inc. and other overnight delivery and surface services. A strike or other interruption in service by these shippers could adversely affect our ability to market or deliver products to customers on a timely basis.

We may experience potential increases in shipping, paper and postage costs, which may adversely affect our business if we are not able to pass such increases on to our customers.

Shipping costs are a significant expense in the operation of our business. Increases in postal or shipping rates and paper costs could significantly impact the cost of producing and mailing our catalogs and shipping customer orders. Postage prices and shipping rates increase periodically and we have no control over future increases. We have a long-term contract with Airborne Express whereby Airborne ships products to our customers. We believe that we have negotiated favorable shipping rates with Airborne. We generally invoice customers for shipping and handling charges. There can be no assurance that we will be able to pass on to our customers the full cost, including any future increases in the cost, of commercial delivery services such as Airborne.

We also incur substantial paper and postage costs related to our marketing activities, including producing and mailing our catalogs. Paper prices historically have been cyclical and we have experienced substantial increases in the past. Significant increases in postal or shipping rates and paper costs could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations, particularly if we cannot pass on such increases to our customers or offset such increases by reducing other costs.

Privacy concerns with respect to list development and maintenance may materially adversely affect our business.

We mail catalogs and send electronic messages to names in our proprietary customer database and to potential customers whose names we obtain from rented or exchanged mailing lists. World-wide public concern regarding personal privacy has subjected the rental and use of customer mailing lists and other customer information to increased scrutiny. Any domestic or foreign legislation enacted limiting or prohibiting these practices could negatively affect our business.

We face many uncertainties relating to the collection of state sales or use tax.

We presently collect sales tax on sales of products to residents in many states. Taxable sales to customers were approximately 27% of our net sales during the year ended December 31, 2002 and approximately 25% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Various states have sought to impose on direct marketers the burden of collecting state sales taxes on the sales of products shipped to their residents. In 1992, the United States Supreme Court affirmed its position that it is unconstitutional for a state to impose sales or use tax collection obligations on an out-of-state mail order company whose only contacts with the state are limited to the distribution of catalogs and other advertising materials through the mail and the subsequent delivery of purchased goods by United States mail or by interstate common carrier. However, legislation that would expand the ability of states to impose sales tax collection obligations on direct marketers has been introduced in Congress on many occasions. D ue to its presence on various forms of electronic media and other factors, our contact with many states may exceed the contact involved in the Supreme Court case. We cannot predict the level of contact that is sufficient to permit a state to impose on us a sales tax collection obligation. If the Supreme Court changes its position or if legislation is passed to overturn the Supreme Court's decision, the imposition of a sales or use tax collection obligation on us in states to which we ship products would result in additional administrative expenses to us, could result in price increases to our customers, and could reduce demand for our product.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS- CONTINUED

Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition - Cont'd.

We are dependent on key personnel.

Our future performance will depend to a significant extent upon the efforts and abilities of our senior executives. The competition for qualified management personnel in the computer products industry is very intense, and the loss of service of one or more of these persons could have an adverse effect on our business. Our success and plans for future growth will also depend on our ability to hire, train and retain skilled personnel in all areas of our business, including sales account managers and technical support personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract, train and retain sufficient qualified personnel to achieve our business objectives.

We are controlled by two principal stockholders.

Patricia Gallup and David Hall, our two principal stockholders, beneficially own or control, in the aggregate, approximately 71% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Because of their beneficial stock ownership, these stockholders can continue to elect the members of the Board of Directors and decide all matters requiring stockholder approval at a meeting or by a written consent in lieu of a meeting. Similarly, such stockholders can control decisions to adopt, amend or repeal our charter and our bylaws, or take other actions requiring the vote or consent of our stockholders and prevent a takeover of us by one or more third parties, or sell or otherwise transfer their stock to a third party, which could deprive our stockholders of a control premium that might otherwise be realized by them in connection with an acquisition of us. Such control may result in decisions that are not in the best interest of our public stockholders. In connection with our initial public offering, the principal stockholders placed substantially all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them into a voting trust, pursuant to which they are required to agree as to the manner of voting such shares in order for the shares to be voted. Such provisions could discourage bids for our common stock at a premium as well as have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.

Item 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We invest cash balances in excess of operating requirements in short-term securities, generally with maturities of 90 days or less. In addition, our unsecured credit agreement provides for borrowings which bear interest at variable rates based on the prime rate. We had no borrowings outstanding pursuant to our credit agreement as of June 30, 2003. We believe that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows should not be material. Our credit agreement exposes earnings to changes in short-term interest rates since interest rates on the underlying obligations are variable. However, as noted above, there were no borrowings outstanding on the credit agreement at June 30, 2003. A change in earnings resulting from a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates is not material.

Item 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a -15(e) and 15d -15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2003. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2003, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report was being prepared and (2) effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a - 15(f) and 15d - 15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2003 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
