                         September 2, 1999

Before JOLLY, JONES, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Julius Alexander McBride appeals the sentence that he

received following his guilty plea conviction for uttering and

attempting to utter counterfeit currency.    McBride argues that

district court erred when it enhanced his sentence under U.S.S.G.

§ 2B5.1(b)(2) for possessing, having custody, or controlling a

counterfeiting device.

     We have reviewed the record and the parties’ briefs and hold

that the district court did not clearly err in finding that


     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

                               -2-

McBride knew that the computer that he had rented and kept in his

home was being used for counterfeiting was not clearly erroneous.

United States v. Bollman, 141 F.3d 184, 186 (5th Cir. 1998);

United States v. Bermea, 30 F.3d 1539, 1575 (5th Cir. 1994).

     AFFIRMED.
