leading provider of in-vehicle security and information services for consumers

    According to Rusty Gordon, President of MSC, "The growth of MSC's services
offering, and the dedicated technologists required to support our customer's

today, the center houses over 50 technical professionals focused on both
advanced client server software and in-vehicle software and hardware
development.  As we continue to rapidly grow both our automotive and

our new Advanced Technology Center will enable MSC to continue to lead the

Positioning Satellites ("GPS") and 24-hour monitoring from ADT to offer
drivers the maximum protection against car crime.  Additionally, MSC provides
consumers and fleet managers with a variety of in-vehicle information
capabilities that provide convenience and remote communications services.
    "There is a significant investment in technology and program management
required to meet our customer's growing needs," said Rusty Gordon.  "MSC and

ensure that our OEM and fleet customers are one step ahead of their
competition."
