SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL POWERED BY DIGITAL

Sundance Institute Leverages Windows-Based Solutions for the First Time

MAYNARD, Mass., January 17, 1996 -- The internationally acclaimed Sundance
Film Festival will premiere more than the latest independent filmmaking at
this year's event in Park City, Utah. For the first time, the Sundance
Institute is using a Windows-based network of personal computers and an
Intel-based PC server for its entire administrative backbone. Digital
Equipment Corporation announced today that it will serve as the
Institute's exclusive Windows-based computing platform in support of the
1996 Sundance Film Festival.

The Sundance Institute will use three dozen Digital Venturis and Celebris
commercial desktop computers and a Digital Prioris PC server to run its
complete ticketing operations and back-office administrative functions.
During its 10-day run from January 18-28, the festival will draw up to
20,000 attendees from around the world, featuring more than 350 films in
15 theaters located throughout the Park City area.

"Digital's global leadership in computer connectivity and reputation for
quality, reliability, and dependable customer support led us to select
them as the Windows-based platform of choice for the administration of
this year's Sundance Film Festival," said Ian Calderon, founding trustee
of the Sundance Institute responsible for new technology.

"We're thrilled to play a supporting role in the world's leading venue for
discovering emerging independent film talent and are honored that the
Sundance Institute has placed their confidence in Digital's PC products
for running this year's event," said Ray Weadock, vice president and
general manager of Americas operations for Digital's Personal Computer
Business Unit.

The Sundance Film Festival, sponsored by the Sundance Institute, is the
leading international showcase for new and innovative independent
filmmaking. Robert Redford created The Sundance Institute in 1981 to
support independent filmmaking and encourage new filmmakers to stretch
their craft as far as their imaginations will allow. The annual Sundance
Film Festival recognizes superior efforts from new filmmakers worldwide.
