ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
 (a) General Development of Business
 
   (a) (1) The original purpose of American General Ventures, Inc. (AGV) was
to seek potential business ventures, which in the opinion of the management of
AGV would provide a profit for AGV. Such involvement would be either as the
acquisition of existing businesses or the acquisition of assets to establish a
subsidiary business for AGV. AGV changed its name to Nucleus, Inc. on December
8, 1998. The name AGV will be used for simplicity purposes and ease of
reference throughout the remainder of this document.
 
   On January 22, l986, AGV signed a letter of intent with Aspen Medical
Diagnostics, Inc. and Neuro-Medical, Inc., both Utah Corporations, to acquire
all of the stock of both of those companies in exchange for 1,000,000 shares
of the common stock of AGV to the shareholders of each of the acquired
companies or a total of 2,000,000 shares. Both acquired companies were in the
business of establishing medical diagnostic facilities.
 
   On September 11, 1987, AGV acquired all of the stock of ACI Micro Systems,
Inc., a Colorado Corporation. ACI Micro Systems, Inc. was in the business of
selling computer and computer accessories manufactured by third parties.
 
   In January 1991, AGV incorporated Your ATTACHE, a wholly owned subsidiary.
Your ATTACHE develops and sells licenses of powerful high speed computer
systems that provides a mutually beneficial communication and interaction
medium between suppliers and consumers. Your ATTACHE is not active and had no
revenues in 1998.
 
   The Company has not been involved, during the year ended December 31, l998,
in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings.
 
   (a)(2) Not applicable.
 
 (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments
 
   AGV has engaged in a single line of business since September 11, 1987, when
the Company acquired ACI Micro Systems. The Company engages in the business of
selling computers and computer accessories manufactured by third parties.
 
 (c) Narrative Description of Business
 
   (c)(1)(i) AGV on January 29, 1986, acquired 100 percent of the outstanding
stock of Neuro-Medical, Inc. (Neuro) and Aspen Medical Diagnostics, Inc.
(Aspen), both Utah corporations. The letter of intent for said purchase was
executed on the 22nd day of January, 1986. In exchange, AGV issued 1,000,000
of its restricted shares to the stockholders of Aspen and 1,000,000 of its
restricted shares to the stockholders of Neuro.
 
   The business of Neuro and Aspen was to establish and operate neurological
diagnostic centers that provide diagnostic testing for physicians and others
in the medical community. The Company made available to the medical community
the latest neurological testing and assessment equipment. The officers of AGV
for eight years used the Brain Electrical Activity Mapping System (BEAM) which
was developed at Harvard University Medical School. The officers of AGV
selected the BEAM system because they believed that the system represented a
significant advancement over alternative equipment being used for neurological
testing in the overall treatment of patients. However, the technology faced
resistance from the medical community which created a negative impact upon the
growth of AGV. AGV ceased to operate its BEAM centers in 1993.
 
                                       2

Current Operations
 
   AGV continues to operate ACI Micro Systems, Inc., (ACI), a Colorado
Corporation, that sells computers and accessories which are manufactured by
other parties.
 
Wal-Mart
 
   AGV has had two vendor agreements with Wal-Mart. The first agreement,
entered into during August, 1995, was a resale agreement for Wal-Mart to sell
AGV computers in their retail stores. The agreement contained provisions which
eventually proved disadvantageous to AGV.
 
   This initial agreement with Wal-Mart incorporated a "sale guarantee" from
AGV to Wal-Mart which gave Wal-Mart customers 15 days to return a computer,
for any reason. Wal-Mart, at its discretion, could either sell the computer
again, or return it to AGV for a full refund, which was effected as a debit
entry on amounts due AGV from Wal-Mart. The second component of the guarantee
allowed Wal-Mart to return unsold computers to AGV for a full refund.
 
   AGV management and Wal-Mart's corporate buyer of computer products agreed
that certain Wal-Mart stores were abusing the guarantee provisions. Individual
Wal-Mart stores were directed by corporate staff to discontinue returning
unsold computers to AGV for credit. This agreement was terminated by mutual
agreement in April, 1997.
 
   A subsequent agreement between the companies was signed in June, 1997. This
agreement permitted AGV to sell its computers from Wal-Mart's web site, Wal-
Mart Online. There was no sale guarantee provision in the agreement, however
the customer received the right to return the equipment within fifteen (15)
days of purchase for a full refund. Customers experiencing problems after
expiration of the 15 day period were directed to call AGV tech support. In
instances where technical problems could not be corrected on a telephone call,
the computer would be shipped to AGV for repair.
 
   Concerns were expressed by Wal-Mart regarding the quality of AGV's products
and technical support, and by AGV regarding Wal-Mart's adherence to
exclusivity provisions in the vendor agreement. AGV was also concerned with
suspected violations by Wal-Mart of the fifteen (15) day return deadline
policy. Due to these and other operational problems under the agreement, on
October 30, 1998, both parties agreed to suspend sales until their problems
could by resolved. As of this date a new agreement has not been consummated.
 
Proposed Operations
 
   Subsequent to the termination of the Wal-Mart agreement, AGV has been
refocusing its efforts to generate sales from its own website--a strategy
which management believes will offset a portion of the revenue lost from the
termination of the Wal-Mart agreement. ACI has developed its own website
(www.availpc.com) ACI pays a fee to Hotmail, a free internet email service
wholly-owned by Microsoft, to promote its computer systems. These banner ads
enable Hotmail customers to link to AGV's website to purchase computer
systems.
 
   AGV does not expect the revenue generated from its website sales to fully
replace the revenue lost from the Wal-Mart agreement.
 
The ACI Micro Computer Systems
 
   ACI Micro Systems, Inc., manufactures, through outsourcing, non-integrated
circuitry computer systems that allows true upgradability. ACI presently has a
capacity of assembling 15,000 computers per month.
 
Seasonality
 
   AGV's business is not considered seasonal.
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
 
Backlog
 
   As of December 31, 1998, AGV was able to fill all orders and did not have
any backlog orders.
 
Competition
 
   AGV's sales operations face stiff competition from existing manufacturers
and sellers of computers. AGV has met the competition in the past with its
niche in the computer industry. Through third party manufacturers, ACI is able
to sell computers that will be assembled in America and still be competitive
with computers built in foreign countries. AGV's computers are built in
America giving AGV a competitive edge to resellers whose philosophy mirrors
that of AGV. In addition to "Made in America" AGV sells computers with non-
integrated circuitry that allows true upgradability and local service and
support.
 
   ACI's Build-To-Order (BTO) program has an advantage over the larger
computer manufacturers because it gives the consumer more choices and lower
prices. The customer is able to build a computer system for less than $1,000.
This is not possible with some of the larger firms because their standard
systems contain components that the consumer may not want. Limited choices
result in higher prices for computer systems.
 
   AGV does not have an established customer service program as compared to
its competitors--some of which have 24 hour, 7 day service and substantially
more capital resources than does AGV. The Company's customer service can best
be described as limited as AGV does not have the systems, personnel, or
capital to establish a high end customer service operation. The inability to
provide comprehensive customer service may have a negative impact on AGV's
ability to compete in its industry and may also have an adverse effect on
AGV's operating results.
 
Research and Development
 
   Since its inception, AGV has spent $193,370 for company sponsored research
and development of the Your ATTACHE concept.
 
Compliance with Environmental Regulations
 
   Management of AGV believes that compliance with federal, state, and local
provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment will have no material
effect on the capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position of AGV.
 
Employees
 
   AGV employs a total of five persons: a chief executive officer, a chief
operating officer, and two full-time and one part-time technicians and/or
assemblers.
 
Foreign Operations
 
   AGV had no foreign operations or export sales during fiscal year 1998.
 
ITEM 2 DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES
 
   AGV currently occupies approximately 2,000 square feet at 3650 Austin
Bluffs Parkway, Suite 138, Colorado Springs, Colorado. AGV pays $2,110 plus
utilities for rent for the Austin Bluffs facility. The lease for the Austin
Bluffs space will continue until May 1, 1999. AGV has two five year options on
the Austin Bluffs space.

ITEM 3 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
   The Company has disputes in the normal course of operations with a number
of its suppliers. Such matters typically relate to vendors requesting payment
on product delivered to the Company, which the Company believes is either
defective or product which had not been ordered from such vendor.
 
   The Company was notified on December 31, 1998 of a collection action filed
against it by Pony Computer, Inc. in the amount of $117,000 for payment on
certain products shipped to ACI by Pony. Management believes that the case was
filed in the wrong jurisdiction and has filed a motion to dismiss. No ruling
on this motion is expected prior to May 1, 1999. Management believes the case
is without merit and expects to aggressively defend the action if its motion
for dismissal is denied.
 
   During 1997, ACI was sued by a supplier, Cal IC, for $27,500, plus
attorneys' fees and costs for payment on certain products shipped to ACI by
Cal IC. The Company's management believed that much of the product received
from Cal IC was either defective or the wrong products were shipped. Cal IC
refused to credit the Company's account or accept the return of product for a
credit. This matter was settled in 1998 at a mediation session for $22,000,
$12,000 payable in cash, with the balance due in equal monthly installments
over ten months. The Company has an account payable for the outstanding
portion of the payments due in the amount of $6,000 had has recorded an
extraordinary gain on the settlement in the amount of $5,500 ($3,630 net of
tax).
 
   During 1997, the Company had a disputed payable balance with one of its
suppliers, Worldnet. Worldnet alleged that the Company owed them $102,445 for
payment on certain products shipped to the Company by Worldnet. The Company's
management believed that much of the product received from Worldnet was either
defective or the wrong products were shipped. Worldnet refused to credit the
Company's account or accept the return of product for a credit. This matter
was settled in 1998 from negotiation between the two parties for $32,000. The
Company has recorded an extraordinary gain related to the settlement of the
disputed payable in the amount of $70,445 ($46,495 net of tax).
 
   During 1997, the Company had disputed payable balances with two additional
suppliers aggregating a total of $51,000. Management believes that such claims
will be successfully negotiated and will likely result in settlement at
reduced amounts.

ITEM 5 MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDERS MATTERS
 
   The following table sets forth, for the calendar quarters indicated ended
March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, the range of high and low
bid quotations per share of AGV Common Stock as reported by NASD on the Over-
The-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board. The quotations reflect inter-dealer
prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may not represent
actual transactions. Prior to December 8, 1998, Nucleus, Inc. was known as
American General Ventures, Inc.
 
   On November 4, 1998 the last full trading date prior to the joint public
announcement by AGV and Nucleus of the signing of the Merger Agreement, the
average of the last reported high and low bid quotations reported by NASD on
the Over-The-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board (OTC-BB) for the AGV Common
Stock was $2.20 per share. Based upon the Exchange Ratio of 5,307,109 shares
of AGV Common Stock for one share of Nucleus Common Stock and the AGV market
price, the equivalent market price per share of Nucleus Common Stock as of
November 4, 1998, based upon the Exchange Ratio, would have been $11,675.64.
On March 8, 1999, the
 
                                       5

the average of the last reported high and low bid quotations on the OTC-BB for
AGV Common Stock was $0.83 per share, and the equivalent market price per
share of Nucleus Common Stock based upon the Exchange Ratio would have been
$4,404.90. These prices have been adjusted to reflect the a one-for-ten
reverse stock split effective December 11, 1998. The quotations, which reflect
prices among dealers, do not reflect retail markups, markdowns, or other fees
or commissions, and do not necessarily represent actual transactions.

ITEM 6 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
 
 Results of Operations
 
Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1997
 
   AGV's primary business and source of revenue is derived from the resale of
computer systems and related products which are manufactured and/or assembled
by third parties. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998 increased 4
percent to $747,144 compared to $721,745 in 1997. The increase in revenue was
primarily related to AGV experiencing steady sales volume through Wal-Mart
Online (up until the termination of the agreement) and the Company's ability
to generate orders through its own website (www.availpc.com). AGV's sales
derived from Wal-Mart were approximately 41 percent and 58 percent for 1998
and 1997, respectively.
   
   AGV has had two vendor agreements with Wal-Mart. The first agreement
(entered into in August, 1995) was a resale agreement for Wal-Mart to sell AGV
computers in their retail stores. The first agreement was terminated by mutual
consent in April, 1997. The second agreement (entered into in June, 1997)
permitted AGV to sell its computers from Wal-Mart's website, Wal-Mart Online.
The second agreement was terminated on October 30, 1998 by mutual consent of
both parties as Wal-Mart was concerned over the quality of AGV's products and
its customer service and AGV suspected violations of customer return policies.
As of this date a new agreement has not been consummated.     
 
   The discontinuance of the Wal-Mart agreement, and loss of the associated
revenue, has and will continue to have a severe adverse effect on AGV's
results of operation, liquidity and capital resources. Consequently, results
of operations for any previous period should not be relied upon as indicative
of expected operating performance for any future period.
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
 
   The satisfaction of AGV's customers is dependent on the customer receiving
a quality product meeting their specifications. AGV's two primary system
providers for the Wal-Mart agreement employed different product delivery
techniques. The Company believes its relationship with Pony Computers and the
delivery format used by Pony resulted in poor customer satisfaction.
 
   Pony Computers fulfilled a majority of AGV's orders related to Wal-Mart
Online and orders made through Wal-Mart's web site. Pony delivered these
systems to customers using a drop shipment technique. Although AGV monitored
the administrative matters involved in the shipment (e.g., correct shipping
address), and handled post delivery service, AGV was unable to examine the
systems for proper componentry or test and inspect the systems to ensure
functionality prior to a customer delivery. AGV, and its customers, often
experienced significant quality problems (e.g., systems not operating
properly, incorrect components, etc.) with Pony's systems. AGV's management
believed that the poor quality of systems shipped by Pony caused the
termination of the second Wal-Mart agreement referred to above. As a result,
AGV discontinued its use of Pony to fulfill its system requirements in
November, 1998. AGV continues to purchase systems from Aberdeen Trading as
well as other system providers.
 
   The primary cost component of revenue is the cost AGV incurs by purchasing
these computer systems and products from third parties. AGV does not currently
maintain a contractual relationship with any system provider, electing to
submit individual purchase orders to such system providers for price quotes
upon receipt of a customer order. Prices are generally established by a system
provider from a price list dependent upon the components and/or systems
requested by a customer. Although no contractual relationships exist, AGV has
historically used Pony Computer and Aberdeen Trading to fulfill its internet
generated orders.
 
   Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 1998 increased 12 percent to
$769,754 compared to $690,064 in 1997. Cost of sales as a percentage of
revenue was 103 percent during 1998 compared to 96 percent during 1997. The
increase in cost of sales was primarily a result of a write-down of inventory
totaling $109,855 to record AGV's inventory at net realizable value.
 
   Selling, general, and administrative expense (S,G,&A) for the year ended
December 31, 1998 increased 6 percent to $455,857 compared to $429,212 in
1997. S,G,&A as a percentage of revenue was 61 percent during 1998 compared to
59 percent during 1997. The increase in S,G,&A was primarily related to AGV
issuing equity instruments for services rendered at values less than the fair
value of such equity instruments.
 
   During 1997, AGV was involved in claims concerning disputed payable
balances totaling $129,945 with two suppliers. In 1998, the claims were
settled for $54,000, resulting in an extraordinary after-tax gain of $50,125.
 
   AGV's net loss decreased 3 percent to $416,424 for the year ended December
31, 1998, compared to $430,921 in 1997. The loss per share was $0.38 for 1998
compared to $0.45 for 1997. The loss in 1998 was primarily due to the
inventory writedown and the issuance of equity instruments as discussed above.
 
Year Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1996
 
   Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 decreased 48 percent to
$721,745 compared to $1,397,850 in 1996. The decrease in revenue was primarily
related to AGV altering its selling format with Wal-Mart from a retail store
format to an Online storefront format through Wal-Mart Online. Wal-Mart Online
was in the development stages during 1997 and AGV did not experience sales
through this format for almost two months during 1997.
 
   Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 1997 decreased 49 percent to
$690,064 compared to $1,365,308 in 1996. Cost of sales as a percentage of
revenue was 96 percent during 1997 compared to 98 percent during 1996. The
decrease in cost of sales was primarily related to Wal-Mart returning fewer
computers during 1997 than during 1996 and AGV's decision to focus its selling
efforts through Wal-Mart Online rather than through the retail store format.

   Selling, general, and administrative expense (S,G,&A) for the year ended
December 31, 1997 decreased 39 percent to $429,212 compared to $701,032 in
1996. S,G,&A as a percentage of revenue was 60 percent during 1997 compared to
50 percent during 1996. AGV was able to decrease the amount of S,G,&A expense
in 1998 by focusing on Internet related sales as opposed to sales through

   AGV's net loss decreased 40 percent to $430,921 for the year ended December
31, 1997, compared to $723,911 in 1996. The loss per share was $0.45 for 1997
compared to $0.79 for 1996. The decrease in loss was primarily due to AGV's
ability to partially increase margins from focusing sales efforts on its
Internet format and reducing S,G,&A costs as discussed above.
 
 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
December 31, 1998
 
   Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) at December 31,
1998 totaled ($320,887) compared to ($142,243) at December 31, 1997. The
decrease in working capital was primarily related to a writedown of $109,855
to record inventory at its net realizable value and the net loss incurred by
AGV for the year ended December 31, 1998.
 
   AGV has not derived any revenue from Wal-Mart subsequent to the termination
of their agreement on October 30, 1998. AGV believes that the loss of the Wal-
Mart agreement, and the associated revenues, will have a severe adverse effect
on the Company's future liquidity. The Company is refocusing its efforts to
generate sales from its own website--a strategy which management believes will
generate cash flow from operations and enable the Company to offset a portion
of the revenue lost from the termination of the Wal-Mart agreement. AGV does
not expect the revenue generated from its website sales to fully replace the
revenue lost from the Wal-Mart agreement.
 
   AGV also expects to seek additional sources of capital to continue to fund
operations while management refocuses its efforts away from its "Wal-Mart
Strategy" and concentrate on promoting sales on its own website. AGV believes
that by re-focusing its efforts toward generating sales from its own website
and by aligning itself with quality system providers will enable AGV to offset
a portion of the revenue lost from the Wal-Mart business.
 
   The satisfaction of AGV's cash requirements during 1999 and thereafter will
depend in large part on AGV's ability to successfully generate sales on its
own website and raise capital to fund operations. There can, however, be no
assurance that sufficient cash will be generated from operations or that
unanticipated events requiring the expenditure of funds will not occur.
 
   As a result, AGV expects to aggressively seek additional sources of funds,
the form of which will vary depending upon prevailing market and other
conditions and may include short or long-term borrowing or the issuance of
debt or equity securities. Additionally, the Company's President has
historically provided working capital advances to the Company. There can be no
assurance that AGV will be able to obtain such funding, or if such funding is
available, that it will be on favorable terms.
   
   On October 30, 1998 the Company entered into a merger agreement with
Nucleus Holdings, Inc. (Holdings) whereby all of the outstanding shares of
Holdings would be exchanged for 5,307,109 newly issued Company shares. The
merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization, as permitted by
the Code and pooling-of-interests for accounting and financial reporting
purposes. Completion of the transaction is subject to, among other things, the
approval of AGV's stockholders.

December 31, 1997
 
   Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) at December 31,
1997 totaled ($142,243), compared to ($149,544) at December 31, 1996. The
change in working capital was primarily related to the Company's Chairman
converting $500,000 in debt owed to him by the Company to equity through the
issuance of 50,000 shares at $10.00 per share, which was offset by the net
loss incurred by AGV for the year ended December 31, 1997.
 
   AGV currently has no commitments for capital expenditures.

   Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"),
requires the Company's officers (as defined under Section 16) and directors
and persons who own greater than 10% of a registered class of the Company's
equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Based solely on a
review of the forms it has received and on written representations from
certain reporting persons that on such forms were required for them, the
Company believes that, during 1998, all Section 16 filing requirements
applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners
were complied with by such persons.

                         INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
 
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Nucleus, Inc.
 
   We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Nucleus, Inc. (formerly
American General Ventures, Inc.) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders'
deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended
December 31, 1998. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above,
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nucleus,
Inc. as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and
cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31,
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiary, ACI Micro Systems, Inc. ("ACI"), a reseller of computers and

share data included in the foregoing financial statements and accompanying
notes thereto have been restated to give effect to the reverse stock split.

exchanged amounted to $8,527 and has been recorded as general and
administrative expense.
 
 Goodwill
 
   Amortization of goodwill amounted to $2,388 for each of the years ended
December 31, 1998, and 1997, and was computed using the straight line method
over a twenty year period. Goodwill recorded by the Company represents the
excess of the purchase of ACI over the net assets acquired.
 
   The Company makes reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Under
SFAS No. 121, an impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future
cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual
disposition is less than its carrying amount. No such impairment losses have
been identified by the Company for the 1998 and 1997 fiscal years.

 Loss per Share
 
   In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." SFAS No. 128 supersedes and simplifies the
existing computational guidelines under Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share."
 
   The statement is effective for financial statements issued for periods
ending after December 15, 1997. Among other changes, SFAS No. 128 eliminates
the presentation of primary earnings per share and replaces it with basic
earnings per share for which common stock equivalents are not considered in
the computation. It also revises the computation of diluted earnings per
share. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128 and there is no material impact to
the Company's earnings per share, financial condition, or results of
operations. The Company's earnings per share have been restated for all
periods presented to be consistent with SFAS No. 128. Per share amounts are
based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common
stock equivalents are not considered in years when operating losses are
incurred as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Anti-dilutive options and
warrants not included in the calculation totaled 367,050 and 40,000 in 1998
and 1997, respectively.
 
   The basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the
period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Loss per share is unchanged on a diluted basis since the assumed
exercise of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.
 
 Revenue Recognition
 
   Revenue is recognized at the time the product is delivered or the service
is performed. Provision for sales returns are estimated based on the Company's
historical return experience.
 
 Estimates
 
   The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
these estimates. The most significant estimates relate to (i) sales returns
and allowances and (ii) inventory valuation.
 
 Advertising costs
 
   Advertising costs are charged to operations when the advertising first
takes place. Advertising costs charged to operations were $3,807 and $3,720 in
1998 and 1997, respectively.
 
 Fair value of financial instruments
 
   The Company's short-term financial instruments consist of cash, accounts
and loans receivable, and payables and accruals. The carrying amounts of these
financial instruments approximates fair value because of their short-term
maturities. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a
concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts
receivable, trade. During the year the Company did not maintain cash deposits
at financial institutions in excess of the $100,000 limit covered by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company had a major customer in
1998, see Notes 2 and 3, the loss of which has had an adverse effect upon the
Company. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading
purposes nor does it hold or issue interest rate or leveraged derivative
financial instruments.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
 
 
 Stock-based Compensation
 
   The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123
(SFAS 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", beginning with the
Company's first quarter of 1996. Upon adoption of SFAS 123, the Company
continued to measure compensation expense for its stock-based employee
compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Stock-based compensation was paid by
the Company during the year ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, as described in
Note 4.
 
 New Accounting Pronouncements
 
   SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", establishes guidelines for
all items that are to be recognized under accounting standards as components
of comprehensive income to be reported in the financial statements. The
statement is effective for all periods beginning after December 15, 1997 and
reclassification financial statements for earlier periods will be required for
comparative purposes. To date, the Company has not engaged in transactions
which would result in any significant difference between its reported net loss
and comprehensive net loss as defined in the statement.
 
   In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use ("SOP 98-1"). SOP 98-1
provides authoritative guidance on when internal-use software costs should be
capitalized and when these costs should be expensed as incurred. The adoption
of SOP 98-1 had no impact on the Company. Effective January 1, 1998, the
Company adopted SOP 98-1.
 
   Effective December 31, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("SFAS 131"). SFAS 131
superseded SFAS No. 14, Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business
Enterprise. SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public business
enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information
about operating segments in interim financial reports. SFAS 131 also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The adoption of SFAS 131 did not affect
results of operations or financial position, as the Company operates in only
one business segment.
 
   Effective December 31, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No.
132, Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-retirement Benefits
("SFAS 132"). SFAS 132 supersedes the disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 87,
Employers' Accounting for Pensions, and SFAS No. 106, Employers' Accounting
for Post-retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. The overall objective of
SFAS 132 is to improve and standardize disclosures about pensions and other
post-retirement benefits and to make the required information more
understandable. The adoption of SFAS 132 had no impact on the Company.
 
   In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS 133"),
which is required to be adopted in years beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS
133 will require the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet
at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value
through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the
hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against
the change in fair value of hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments
through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged
item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's
change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. The adoption
of SFAS 133 had no impact on the Company.

Note 2. Company Operations
   
   The Company sells computers and accessories which are manufactured by third
parties. The Company has had two vendor agreements with Wal-Mart. The first
agreement (entered into in August, 1995) was a resale agreement for Wal-Mart
to sell ACI computers in their retail stores. The first agreement was
terminated by mutual consent in April, 1997. The second agreement (entered
into in June, 1997) permitted ACI to sell its computers from Wal-Mart's
website, Wal-Mart Online. The second agreement was terminated on October 30,
1998 by mutual consent of both parties as Wal-Mart was concerned over the
quality of ACI's products and its customer service and because ACI suspected
violations of customer return policies. As of this date a new agreement has
not been consummated.     
 
   The discontinuance of the Wal-Mart agreement, and loss of the associated
revenue, has and will continue to have a severe adverse effect on the
Company's results of operation and liquidity and capital resources.
 
   Subsequent to the termination of the Wal-Mart agreement, ACI has been
refocusing its efforts to generate sales from its own website and store--a
strategy which management believes will offset a portion of the revenue lost
from the termination of the Wal-Mart agreement. ACI has developed its own
website (www.availpc.com). ACI pays a fee to Hotmail, a free Internet email
service wholly-owned by Microsoft, to promote its computer systems. These
banner ads enable Hotmail customers to link to ACI's website to purchase
computer systems. Sales made by the Company during 1998 which can be
attributed to this service amounted to $296,468. The Company ceased its
relationship with this service during 1998 as a result of a change in
ownership of the service which resulted in a change in the nature of its
relationships with its advertisers.
 
   The Company does not expect the revenue generated from its website or store
sales to fully replace the revenue lost from the Wal-Mart agreement.
 
Note 3. Concentration of credit risk
 
   During the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company recorded
revenue for goods or services provided to client companies that comprise
greater than 10% of total revenues as follows:

   At December 31, 1998 the Company had a balance due from Wal-Mart Stores
amounting to $10,000 which was paid in full subsequent to that date. During
1998, the Company ceased its relationship with Wal-Mart Stores.
 
Note 4. Stockholders' Equity.
 
   During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company issued an aggregate of
40,750 shares of its common stock to third parties for cash aggregating
$74,500 in private sale transactions. The shares were sold at prices between
$2.00 per share and $1.50 per share when the Company's common stock had a bid
price higher than the sale price. The excess of the bid price over the sale
price for the shares issued amounted to $43,000 on an aggregate basis and has
been recorded as general and administrative expense.
 
   The Company issued an aggregate of 1,210 shares of its common stock for
services provided to the Company by employees at various dates during 1998.
The bonus shares were valued at bid price for the Company's common stock at
the date the shares were authorized by the Company's Board of Directors. The
aggregate value of the shares issued was $3,262 and has been recorded as
compensation expense for service provided to the Company which was
substantially complete as of the authorization dates.

   During the year ended December 31, 1998 the Company issued 28,500 shares of
its common stock for the conversion of $57,000 of debt owed to its
president/shareholder. The shares were valued at $2.00 per share at the
conversion date at which time the Company's common stock had a bid price of
$2.20 per share. The excess of the bid price over the conversion price for the
shares issued ($5,700) has been recorded as compensation expense.
 
   At December 31, 1998 the Company's president/shareholder agreed to reduce
the amount of loans due to him by $14,813. This amount has been recorded as a
capital contribution to the Company.
 
   At various dates during the year ended December 31, 1998 the Company issued
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 327,050 shares of the Company's common
stock to employees and others in recognition of services performed at exercise
prices ranging from $5.00 per share to $1.60 per share. An aggregate
difference of $141,000 between the exercise price and the fair value of the
stock signifying the completion of the services as approved by the Company's
Board of Directors was charged to compensation expense.
 
   The Company issued an aggregate of 27,700 shares of its common stock for
services provided to the Company by three entities. The shares were valued at
$1.00 per share for 10,000 shares issued in January 1997 and $2.50 per share
for 17,700 shares issued in September 1997 based on the bid prices of the
Company's common stock on these dates and have been recorded as general and
administrative expenses.
 
   The Company issued 100,000 warrants during 1997 to purchase the Company's
common stock in connection with an agreement for a vendor to provide website
development and public relations services to the Company. The exercise price
for these warrants was determined based on the Company's bid price of $2.50 on
the day the warrants were issued. Fifty thousand of the warrants had an
exercise price of $2.50 per share and the exercise price of the remaining
50,000 warrants was $3.875 per share. The Company received $150,833 in cash
during 1997 related to the exercise of 56,667 of the warrants by the vendor.
The remaining warrants issued to the vendor expired on December 31, 1997.
 
   During the year ended December 31, 1997 the Company issued 50,000 shares of
its common stock for the conversion of debt owed to its president/shareholder.
The shares were valued at $10.00 per share when the Company's common stock had
a bid price of $5.00 per share at the date the conversion was approved by the
Company's Board of Directors. The excess of the conversion price over the bid
price for the shares issued (totaling $500,000) has been recorded as a capital
contribution to the Company by its president/shareholder. Additionally, 5,000
shares of restricted common stock were issued to a vendor for debt conversion
at $5.00 per share (totaling $25,000), the fair value of the stock on the
conversion date.
 
   During the year ended December 31, 1997 the Company established a non-
qualified stock option plan to benefit employees, officers, directors,
consultants and others providing services to the Company. The Company has
reserved 2,500,000 shares of common stock for issuance in connection with
option grants made pursuant to the plan. The purchase price for shares granted
under the plan shall not be less than 67% of the fair market value of the
stock on the grant date. The shares and warrant shares described in the
preceding paragraphs were issued in connection with the stock option plan.

   The weighted average fair value at the date of grant for warrants granted
during 1998 as described above was $.36 per warrant (after recording the
additional compensation attributed to warrants as described above). The fair
value of the warrants at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-
Scholes model with assumptions as follows:

   Stock based compensation costs would have increased pretax losses by
$125,500 ($.11 per share) in 1998, if the fair value of the warrants granted
during the year had been recognized as compensation expense. There would have
been no stock-based compensation cost in 1997.
 
Note 5. Income Taxes.
 
   The Company has not provided for income taxes for the years ended December
31, 1998, and 1997, due to operating losses.
 
   The Company has net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future
taxable income of approximately $3,051,000. Such carryforward amounts expire
in years beginning in 2002, as follows:

   The Company does not anticipate the utilization of these net operating
losses in the near future and has established a valuation allowance for the
full amount of deferred tax asset ($1,037,000) estimated to arise therefrom.
The reserve amount increased by approximately $141,000 and $143,000 during the
years ended December 31, 1998, and 1997.
 
Note 6. Related Party Transactions
 
   The Company was obligated to compensate its president at the rate of
$63,000 per annum effective January, 1992. Additionally, the
president/shareholder has historically been entitled to a bonus in the amount
of 10% of any net profit of the Company. As of October 30, 1998, the
contingent bonus arrangement has been discontinued.
 
   The balance due this officer/shareholder, who is also a director of the
Company, at December 31, 1996 amounted to $492,370 for prior accrued salary,
interest, cash advances and the assumption during 1996 of a bank loan in the
amount of $255,200. During the year ended December 31, 1997, the
officer/shareholder made working capital advances to the Company of $100,574.
The Company has accrued the officer's unpaid salary of $60,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1997. At December 31, 1997 $500,000 of the aggregate
balance due to the officer/ shareholder was converted into common stock of the
Company as described in Note 4. The remaining balance due the
officer/shareholder for loans and accrued interest amounted to $152,944 at
December 31, 1997.
 
   During the year ended December 31, 1998, the officer made working capital
advances to the Company of $33,369. The Company has accrued the officer's
unpaid salary of $60,500 for the year ended December 31, 1998. During May 1998
$57,000 of the aggregate balance due to the officer was converted into common
stock of the Company as described in Note 4 and as of December 31, 1998 the
officer forgave $14,813 of the loan balance. This reduction of the loan
balance was accounted for as a contribution of capital to the Company by the
officer/ shareholder.
 
   The remaining balance due the officer/shareholder for working capital
advances, accrued salary and accrued interest amounted to $175,000 at
December 31, 1998 and is unsecured and non-interest bearing. This amount is
expected to be repaid to the officer currently in connection with a planned
merger as described in Note 9.
 
Note 7. Long-term debt
 
   During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company entered into a vehicle
purchase contract which provides for a monthly repayment of $492 through the
year 2001. The contract bears interest at 8.5% per annum and is secured by
such vehicles. During 1997, the Company disposed of one of the vehicles and
retired the related debt. Aggregate amounts due under the remaining contract
are $3,310 in 1999, $5,330 in 2000 and $3,812 in 2001.
 
Note 8. Commitments and contingencies
 
 Operating leases
 
   The Company leases its facility under a non-cancellable operating lease
through May 31, 1999. The minimum future rental payable under the lease is
$7,875 for 1999. Rent expense amounted to $26,107 and $27,310 for the years
ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

 Legal Proceedings
 
   The Company has disputes in the normal course of operations with a number
of its suppliers. Such matters typically relate to vendors requesting payment
on product delivered to the Company, which the Company believes is either
defective or product which had not been ordered from such vendor.
 
   The Company was notified on December 31, 1998 of a collection action filed
against it by Pony Computer, Inc. in the amount of $117,000 for payment on
certain products shipped to ACI by Pony. Management believes that the case was
filed in the wrong jurisdiction and has filed a motion to dismiss. No ruling
on this motion is expected prior to May 1, 1999. Management believes the case
is without merit and expects to aggressively defend the action if its motion
for dismissal is denied.
 
   During 1997, ACI was sued by a supplier, Cal IC, for $27,500, plus
attorneys fees and costs for payment on certain products shipped to ACI by Cal
IC. The Company's management believed that much of the product received from
Cal IC was either defective or the wrong products were shipped. Cal IC refused
to credit the Company's account or accept the return of product for a credit.
This matter was settled in 1998 at a mediation session for $22,000, $12,000
payable in cash, with the balance due in equal monthly installments over ten
months. The Company has an account payable for the outstanding portion of the
payments due in the amount of $6,000 and has recorded an extraordinary gain on
the settlement in the amount of $5,500 ($3,630 net of tax).
 
   During 1997, the Company had a disputed payable balance with one of its
suppliers, Worldnet. Worldnet alleged that the Company owed them $102,445 for
payment on certain products shipped to the Company by Worldnet. The Company's
management believed that much of the product received from Worldnet was either
defective or the wrong products were shipped. Worldnet refused to credit the
Company's account or accept the return of product for a credit. This matter
was settled in 1998 from negotiation between the two parties for $32,000. The
Company has recorded an extraordinary gain related to the settlement of the
disputed payable in the amount of $70,445 ($46,495 net of tax).
 
   During 1997, the Company had disputed payable balances with two additional
suppliers aggregating a total of $51,000. Management believes that such claims
will be successfully negotiated and will likely result in settlement at
reduced amounts.
