Zoom FaxModem Wins Ziff-Davis Award in Germany

Zoom V.34XE FaxModem named price/performance leader by PC Professionell
magazine

BOSTON, MA, FEB. 12, 1996 - The Zoom FaxModem V.34XE has been chosen as the
price/performance leader by PC Professionell magazine in a comparison of
14 competing V.34 external faxmodems selling in Germany. The award was
announced in the February 1996 issue of PC Professionell, a leading German
monthly computer trade magazine published by Ziff Verlag GmbH, a
subsidiary of Ziff-Davis Publishing Company.

In its review, PC Professionell commented: "The V.34XE FaxModem, a
first-time participant, skyrocketed to the front of the pack." The review
concluded that the V.34XE's high connectivity and throughput performance,
extended status reporting lights, and reasonable cost, plus Zoom's service
and 7-year warranty "left the competition behind."

"We at Zoom are very pleased to be recognized by PC Professionell for the
quality and value of our V.34XE faxmodem," said Terry Manning, Zoom's
Director of Marketing. "We know that the German PC market pays close
attention to the results of reviews in the technical press. This award
from Ziff-Davis, which which we understand to have the best editorial
benchmark testing laboratory in Germany, clearly differentiates Zoom from
the rest of the pack."
