of Network Systems International, Inc. as of September 30, 2000 and for the
years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. On January 31, 2001, our appointment as
principal accountants was terminated. We have read Network Systems
International, Inc.'s statements included under Item 4 of its Form 8-K dated
