      and
      companies that grow in the future are those who are able to accept and adapt
      to
      change. Multiple factors in today&#8217;s business landscape are driving technology
      demands for storage and VoIP, and the proposed PyX acquisition gives SBE the
      opportunity to make a difference. </font></div>

      reports from International Data Corporation (IDC) indicate that the iSCSI market
      grew from $18 million in 2003 to $113 million in 2004. Furthermore, IDC

      my 20
      years of sales and marketing experience in this industry, I&#8217;ve learned that
      there is a direct correlation between product uniqueness, customer demands
      relative to timing, and revenue success. Through months of research, testing,
      and customer evaluations, we have concluded that PyX&#8217;s technology has unique
      fault-tolerant features essential for the success of iSCSI that are not found
      in
      competitive solutions today. We believe our acquisition of PyX will enable
      SBE
      to approach IP storage in a three-tier manner: to sell the iSCSI software
      separately; to sell storage hardware separately; and lastly, to combine the
      software with our TCP/IP Offload Engines, or TOE, hardware for integrated,
      &#8220;best-of breed&#8221; original equipment manufacturer, or OEM, solutions.</font></div>

      it more difficult for us to raise capital through public offerings or other
      sales of our capital stock. In addition, the public perception that these sales
      might occur could have the same undesirable effects. The PyX shareholders who
      receive shares of our common stock in the merger will, prior to the completion

      no later than 90&#160;days after the merger is completed. In addition, we
      are

      no later than 60 days after the private placement is completed. The purchasers
      in the private placement are not subject to any lockup with respect to the
      shares they purchase in the private placement. Once the registration statement
      relating to such shares becomes effective, the shares issued in the private

      pursuant to these registration rights and holders of an additional approximately

      storage is universally regarded as one of the most burdensome of IT
      responsibilities. In direct-attached storage environments that most small to
      mid-sized companies deploy, the process of managing storage is multiplied by
      the
      number of physical connection points and the number of storage systems in an
      organization. Imagine an environment with ten computers, each with its own
      storage system. Not only does that create ten point-for-management for the
      storage systems themselves, it also requires ten times the effort to handle
      storage expansion, reallocation and repairs. With SANs storage management is
      consolidated to a single point from which an IT manager can partition, allocate,
      expand, reassign, backup and repair storage. By moving to a SAN, small to
      mid-sized organizations can scale their storage infrastructure much more easily.
      When additional capacity is needed, simply add additional storage to the SAN.
      IP
      SANs such as iSCSI provide higher-speed storage access than internal disks
      while
      also enabling load balancing across multiple connections. Remote storage powered
      by iSCSI also enables on-line data back up, disaster recover and high-speed
      access to data by remote users.</font></div>

      several software companies to provide that functionality. On August 7, 2003,
      Andre Hedrick, a founder and then chief executive officer of PyX, approached
      us
      at the LinuxWorld trade show in San Francisco expressing an interest in
      combining his iSCSI products with our TOE. We passed the PyX contact and product
      information on to our engineering group.</font></div>

      it was the only multi-port product available, and highlighted the benefits
      of
      PyX&#8217;s port aggregation feature, which allows the user to combine both Gigabit
      Ethernet ports for combined functionality, and failover and error recovery
      features that detect fatal errors on one port and quickly re-route to the other

      amount of consideration to be paid by us in connection with the merger.
      Furthermore, Houlihan Lokey did not negotiate any portion of the merger

      alternatives to the merger. </font></div>

      was
      fair to us from a financial point of view. In connection with its review,
      Houlihan Lokey considered financial projections prepared by our management.
      The

      occurring after the date they were prepared. In addition, factors such as
      industry performance, general business, economic, regulatory, market and
      financial conditions, as well as changes to our business, financial condition
      or
      results of operation, may cause the financial projections or the underlying

      Lokey&#8217;s opinion is based on the business, economic, market and other conditions,

      summary set forth above describes the material points of more detailed analyses
      performed by Houlihan Lokey in arriving at its fairness opinion. The preparation
      of the fairness opinion is a complex analytical process involving various
      determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial
      analysis and application of those methods to the particular circumstances and
      is
      therefore not readily susceptible to summary description. In arriving at its
      opinion, Houlihan Lokey made qualitative judgments as to the significance and
      relevance of each analysis and factor. Accordingly, the analyses and summary
      set
      forth in this proxy statement must be considered as a whole and that selecting
      portions of the analyses, without considering all analyses and factors, or
      portions of this summary, could create an incomplete and/or inaccurate view
      of
      the processes underlying the analyses set forth in Houlihan Lokey&#8217;s fairness
      opinion. In its analyses, Houlihan Lokey made numerous assumptions with respect
      to us, the merger, industry performance, general business, economic, market
      and
      financial conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control
      of
      the respective entities. The estimates contained in the analyses are not
      necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or
      values, which may be more or less favorable than suggested by the analyses.
      Additionally, analyses relating to the value of our businesses or securities
      are
      not appraisals. Accordingly, such analyses and estimates are inherently subject
      to substantial uncertainty. </font></div>

      pro rata portion of the shares received from the escrow, or a total of
      approximately 326,358 shares of our common stock. All of the shares received
      by
      the signing shareholders in connection with the merger, or a total of
      approximately 1,817,000 shares of our common stock, are subject to their
      indemnification obligations with respect to breaches of the representation
      and
      warranty relating to PyX&#8217;s capitalization and breaches of certain covenants
      related to securities law compliance and the information statement provided
      to
      the PyX shareholders in connection with the solicitation of the PyX shareholder
      vote with respect to the merger agreement and merger. There is no limitation
      on
      the liability of the signing shareholders with respect to breaches involving
      fraud or intentional misrepresentations. </font></div>

                  the PyX acquisition, the Company will issue 2,561,050 shares of
                  the
                  Company&#8217;s common stock with an assumed value of $3.09 per share for
                  payment to the selling shareholders of PyX for the acquisition
                  of PyX. The
                  assumed price per share is based on the average closing price for
                  the
                  Company&#8217;s common stock over the period beginning five trading days prior
                  to and ending five trading days after the date the merger agreement
                  was
                  signed, March 28, 2005. In addition, the Company will assume the
                  PyX stock
                  option plan with the outstanding PyX stock options converted into
                  options
                  to purchase 2,038,950 shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock. These
                  replacement options vest over 4 years and the PyX employees must
                  continue
                  to an employee of the Company during the vesting period. The fair
                  value of
                  each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
                  Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average
                  assumptions used for grants in 2005: Dividend yield of 0%; expected
                  volatility of 70.0%, risk-free interest rate of 3.0%, and expected
                  life of
                  four years. The assumed price per share is based on the average
                  closing
                  price for the Company&#8217;s common stock over the period beginning five
                  trading days prior to and ending five trading days after the date
                  the

                  of
                  options to purchase the Company&#8217;s common stock is allocated to as follows:
                  $9,987,000 to Intellectual Property, which is the estimated fair
                  value of
                  the PyX intellectual property, associated with current and future
                  products
                  acquired in the acquisition of PyX and $1,876,000 to deferred
                  compensation. The deferred compensation is calculated as the difference
                  between the stock option strike price of $2.17 per share and the
                  assumed
                  value of $3.09 per share. The assumed price per share is based

                  after
                  the date the merger agreement was signed, March 28, 2005. The Company
                  amortizes deferred compensation to expense on a straight-line basis
                  over
                  the vesting period of the underlying options to purchase the Company&#8217;s
                  common stock, in this case 4 years. Deferred compensation expense
                  totaling
                  $281,000 per year will be included in the Company&#8217;s product research and
                  development expense and deferred compensation expense totaling
                  $188,000
                  per year will be included in the Company&#8217;s sales and marketing expense for

      efforts have been devoted to the development of software products for the
      Internet Small Computer System Interface, or iSCSI, enterprise storage market
      and raising capital. PyX has not received any significant revenues from the

      goal is to develop a complete software-based, scalable storage solution via
      an
      iSCSI Initiator and Target driver set for the NetBSD or LINUX OS. PyX believes
      that its iSCSI software provides an efficient alternative for all environments
      seeking interoperability in a software-based enterprise storage solution. A
      Storage Area Network, or SAN, infrastructure with iSCSI capabilities can
      continue to operate during the constant network changes and updates facing

      the costs of other high-performance storage transport technology, and in
      particular fibre channel architectures, may be prohibitively expensive. As
      companies see the number of servers and databases grow on their networks, they
      are experiencing increasing storage-management complexity that can result in
      inefficient storage utilization and increased cost of ownership. When the
      expense and scarcity of qualified IT support staff are factored in, these issues
      can be compounded significantly.&#160;</font></div>

      small- and medium-sized companies, iSCSI may be their best solution as it
      utilizes the same IP infrastructure as network attached storage, but features
      the block input/output protocol inherent in storage area networks, or SANs.
      PyX
      believes that the adaptability of iSCSI to varied storage approaches likewise
      increases the market potential for iSCSI software solutions. The bulk of PyX&#8217;s
      iSCSI revenues for 2005 and 2006 are expected to come from sales in the SAN
      market as described above. PyX also anticipates being able to market to the
      developing consumer and military/government markets. Specifically, iSCSI
      applications are expected to include Secure Mobile Computing, in the
      military/government market, and the Global Personal SAN, in the consumer market.
      While these markets will take longer to develop, they are expected to be a
      part
      of PyX&#8217;s long-term strategy for growth and expansion beyond the traditional SAN
      market.</font></div>

      software products, two of which have been completed, the iSCSI Initiator and
      the
      iSCSI Target software running on Linux. The iSCSI Initiator, the Linux version
      of which is currently being shipped, is a product that resides on a client&#8217;s
      computer, server or device that is connected to a network. PyX&#8217;s technology
      allows the iSCSI Initiator to regard the target storage device as another local
      disk, whether it is in a server in a nearby location or in another country.
      The
      iSCSI Target is a product that resides on a storage server and is the
      destination of the iSCSI Initiator. Recently, a graphical user interface was
      added to the management features of this stack to enhance the ease-of-use
      experience and broaden the appeal to a larger market.</font></div>

      of PyX&#8217;s software arrangements include consulting implementation services sold
      separately under consulting engagement contracts. Consulting revenues from
      these
      arrangements are generally accounted for separately from new software license
      revenues because the arrangements qualify as service transactions as defined
      in
      SOP 97-2. The more significant factors considered in determining whether the
      revenue should be accounted for separately include the nature of services (i.e.,
      consideration of whether the services are essential to the functionality of
      the
      licensed product), degree of risk, availability of services from other vendors,
      timing of payments and impact of milestones or acceptance criteria on the
      realizability of the software license fee. Revenues for consulting services
      are
      generally recognized as the services are performed. If there is a significant
      uncertainty about the project completion or receipt of payment for the
      consulting services, revenue is deferred until the uncertainty is sufficiently
      resolved. Service revenues of $0 and $5,000 were recognized in the year ended
      December 31, 2004 and the period from inception (November 26, 2002) to December

      conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
      Accounting Oversight Board. Those standards require that we plan and perform
      the
      audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
      are
      free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were
      we
      engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
      Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting
      as
      a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
      circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
      effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
      Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining,
      on a
      test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
      statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
      made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
      presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
      opinion.</font></div>

      of the Company&#8217;s software arrangements include consulting implementation
      services sold separately under consulting engagement contracts. Consulting
      revenues from these arrangements are generally accounted for separately from
      new
      software license revenues because the arrangements qualify as service
      transactions as defined in SOP 97-2. The more significant factors considered
      in
      determining whether the revenue should be accounted for separately include
      the
      nature of services (i.e., consideration of whether the services are essential
      to
      the functionality of the licensed product), degree of risk, availability of
      services from other vendors, timing of payments and impact of milestones or
      acceptance criteria on the realizability of the software license fee. Revenues
      for consulting services are generally recognized as the services are performed.
      If there is a significant uncertainty about the project completion or receipt
      of
      payment for the consulting services, revenue is deferred until the uncertainty
      is sufficiently resolved. Service revenues of $0 and $5,000 were recognized
      in
      the year ended December 31, 2004 and the period from inception (November 26,
      2002) to December 31, 2003, respectively. </font></div>

      SFAS No.
      109 requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected
      future tax consequences of items that have been included in the financial
      statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes represent the future net tax
      effects resulting from temporary differences between the financial statement
      and
      tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for
      the
      year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances
      are
      recorded against net deferred tax assets where, in our opinion, realization
      is
      uncertain. The provision for income taxes represents the net change in deferred
      tax amounts, plus income taxes payable for the current period.</font></div>

      of
      common stock were sold to investors for $50.00 per share. On November 30, 2003,
      the Company increased its authorized number of shares of common stock from

      its
      common stock. In March 2004, 80,000 shares of the Company&#8217;s Common Stock have
      been sold to investors for $1.00 per share. On January 20, 2005, the Company
      issued $250,000 of preferred stock for $250,000 cash. The preferred stock has
      a
      liquidation preference to the Company&#8217;s common stock holders. The preferred
      stock is convertible into common stock simultaneously with the sale of the
      Company to SBE. The Company also entered into an employment agreement with
      two
      of the holders of the preferred stock. The employees will receive 175,000 shares

      though July 2005 in lieu of cash compensation. For financial statement
