PERFORMANCE TECHNOLOGY RELEASES FUSION95

PC-UNIX INTEGRATION PACKAGE FOR WINDOWS95, WINDOWS/NT

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, February 7, 1996--Performance Technology (PT) announced
today the release of Fusion95, a PC-to-UNIX integration package that
allows a UNIX machine to act as a file and print server to PC LANs.
Specifically, Fusion95 supports any SMB-based PC LAN, such as Windows95 or
NT, that is running TCP/IP and RFC NetBIOS. Fusion95's quick and easy
installation is a key distinction.

Fusion95 uses an existing UNIX system as a PC server, enabling Windows95
and other PC environments to take advantage of high-performance,
high-capacity hardware platforms, including RISC-based machines, as file
and print servers. Fusion95's implementation includes shared file and
record locking between UNIX and PC (DOS, Windows, and OS/2) applications
residing on the UNIX system.

Fusion95 customers also benefit from sharing valuable resources such as
printers. The product's "print-anywhere" capability allows UNIX users to
print to any PC printer and PC users to print to any UNIX printer.

Another major Fusion95 benefit gives PC users access to sophisticated
database and specialized vertical applications offered only on UNIX- based
operating systems. The bundled Windows-based terminal emulator provides
high-performance support for ANSI, VT100, and VT200.

Fusion95 comes on only one diskette and can be installed quickly on the
host UNIX--generally in under 30 minutes. For networks running RFC-TCP/IP,
Fusion95 requires no changes to any network server or client.
