Item 5                     Other Events and Required FD Disclosure.

                As previously reported in Computer Horizon Corp.’s (the “Company”) Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company’s 2001 federal income tax return resulted in a net operating loss carryback claim and federal income tax refund.  Because the 2001 income tax return reflected a loss that was subject to determination by the Internal Revenue Service, the Company recorded reserves for the tax benefits resulting from the carryback.  The Internal Revenue Service and the Joint Committee on Taxation have completed their examination of the Company’s 2001 federal income tax return and federal refund claims, and have accepted them without change.  Accordingly, the reserves, consisting primarily of the tax benefit reserve of $19.6 million, are no longer required.  The release of these reserves, shown as current liabilities at December 31, 2003, will result in an increase in working capital for the first quarter of 2004, along with additional paid-in-capital.
