CERTIFICATIONS

I, James H. Long, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President
and Chairman of the Board, certify that:

         1.       I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of I-Sector
                  Corporation ("I-Sector").

         2.       Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain
                  any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
                  material fact necessary in order to make the statements made,
                  in light of the circumstances under which such statements were
                  made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
                  this quarterly report;

         3.       Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other
                  financial information included in this quarterly report,
                  fairly present in all material respects the financial
                  condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
                  registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this
                  quarterly report;

         4.       I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure
                  controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
                  13a-14 and 15d-14) for I-Sector and I have:

                  a.       designed such disclosure controls and procedures to
                           ensure that material information relating to
                           I-Sector, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
                           made known to me by others within those entities,
                           particularly during the period in which this
                           quarterly report is being prepared.

                  b.       evaluated the effectiveness of I-Sector's disclosure
                           controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days
                           prior to the filing date of this quarterly report
                           (the "Evaluation Date"); and

                  c.       presented in this quarterly report my conclusions
                           about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
                           and procedures based on my evaluation as of the
                           Evaluation Date.

         5.       I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation, to the
                  registrant's auditors and the audit committee of I-Sector's
                  board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
                  function):

                  a.       all significant deficiencies in the design or
                           operation of internal controls which could adversely
                           affect I-Sector's ability to record, process,
                           summarize and report financial data and have
                           identified for I-Sector's auditors any material
                           weaknesses in internal controls; and

                  b.       any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
                           management or other employees who have a significant
                           role in I-Sector's internal controls; and

         6.       I have indicated in this quarterly report whether or not there
                  were significant changes in internal controls or in other
                  factors that could significantly affect the internal controls
                  subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation,
                  including any corrective actions with regard to significant
                  deficiencies and material weaknesses.
